HMS VICTORY Full Tour at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard | Royal Navy's Most Famous Warship [4K]

[4K] HMS Victory at Portsmouth Dockyard, join us for a full walkthrough of the Royal Navy's most famous Warship best known for her role in the Battle of Trafalgar
The Royal Navy's Flagship
There have been many celebrated warships in Britain’s naval history but HMS Victory can justifiably claim to be the most famous of them all. Serving as Vice-Admiral Lord Nelson’s flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar, HMS Victory is a 104-gun first-rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, ordered in 1758, laid down in 1759 and launched in 1765. She has been sat in the dry-dock at Portsmouth since 1922 and preserved as a museum. In October 2012 HMS Victory became the flagship of the First Sea Lord and is the world's oldest serving navel ship still in commission
Just some of the highlights as we take a full tour of HMS Victory, are the spot where Vice-Admiral Lord Nelson fell with an engraved plaque marking the spot and also experience the new HMS Victory Under Hull Walkway as visitors are now able to descend into the base of the dry dock and view the 3600 tonne ship from below.
Portsmouth Historic Dockyard
The history of the British Navy at Portsmouth dates back 1,200 years to its earliest days under King Alfred the Great in the 860s. The wide natural inlet in the coastline is a flooded river valley protected by a deep narrow entrance on two sides of the dockyard and at Gosport, which makes an ideal harbour.
Roman and Saxon strongholds were constructed on the northern shore to defend against Viking attacks and to protect trade, but the harbour's first permanent fort, Portchester Castle, was built after the Norman Conquest in 1066.
Portsea Island, at the entrance to Portsmouth harbour, was used as a mustering station for armies during the wars with France, and by the late 12th century a small town had grown on the south-western corner of the Island to accommodate workers and to service troops. In 1194 King Richard I granted this town, known as Portsmouth, a Royal Charter to construct a dockyard, and in 1212 King John protected the new dockyard with a great wall.

Brasileiro aposentado morando na cidade de Pariquera Açú, Estado de São Paulo, Brasil, desde 2018. Parabéns pelo vídeo, percebe-se pela opulência deste navio, porque os ingleses dominaram os mares nessa época, é uma verdadeira aula de história. Quantas pessoas eram necessárias para mover um navio desse? Qual seria o custo de construção hoje? Naquela época?❤❤❤

[@pinkfloyd8361]

Wow!

[@themightyangustma2753]

Great video mate, thorough and precise. Really gives me a feel of what it’s actually like. Thanks for sharing, Cheers from down under, 👍🏻🇦🇺

[@PlanItPark]

Your welcome, thank you for watching

[@Armed-Forever]

wow

[@MikelZappy]

Where is the ships mainmast?.

[@PlanItPark]

Good question, according to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard - ' the main lower mast, one of the earliest surviving examples of a wrought iron mast in the Royal Navy, has been removed for the first time in nearly 130 years for condition assessment and conservation.'

[@nigeldewallens1115]

I have a strange question? what was the strange floor, that was produced back in its day that looked like artificial tiling flooring?

[@PlanItPark]

Thanks you

[@daviddavies2072]

Great video thank you , it's time the masks were put back ?

[@PlanItPark]

Thank you , HMS Victory is currently undergoing what they call The Big Repair and is enclosed in scaffolding. The masts of HMS Victory are not due to be put back until after these repairs are completed which is likely to be in 2025.

[@daviddavies2072]

@PlanItPark thank you so much for your reply, and great to know she will be at best best once again 🇬🇧👍

[@azut75]

Quite annoying small kids in a museum…

[@reelmsy3831]

haha

[@woodykeith]

Also annoying was the dizzying panning of an obviously inexperienced camera person - never paused long enough on a sign so we could actually read it, and the longest shots were stairs and the underneath of the hull. A real shame as the potential was there for a great video.

[@cilla268]

Love it with the 1812 overture.

[@PlanItPark]

Thank you💖
