  • In the 1880s, Germany built a series of coastal defense ships to protect its coastline on the North and Baltic Seas. During the 1870s and early 1880s, the Imperial German Navy had built a number of ironclad warships of various designs. In the mid-1880s, however, dissatisfaction with the Sachsen-class ironclads and the rise of the Jeune École doctrine persuaded Leo von Caprivi, then the chief of the Imperial Navy to turn away from capital ship construction in favor of coastal defense ships and torpedo boats. As a result, the next class of large warships, the Siegfried class, was significantly smaller than the earlier ironclads, and armed with a main battery of only three large-caliber guns. These vessels were intended only for defense of German harbors. Six of them were built between 1888 and 1894. Another two ships of the Odin class were built to a modified design between 1892 and 1896. All eight of the ships were heavily modernized between 1898 and 1904; the reconstruction included lengthening the ships and equipping them with new boilers. All eight ships were mobilized briefly at the start of World War I in August 1914 as the , though by August 1915, they had all been withdrawn from service and employed in secondary roles. All were stricken from the naval register in 1919 after the end of the war and subsequently discarded; three of the ships, Frithjof, Odin, and Ägir were converted into merchant ships and served in this capacity throughout the 1920s. The rest were broken up for scrap by the early 1920s. These coastal defense ships turned out to be a temporary diversion for the German fleet. In 1888, before any of the Siegfrieds or Odins had been laid down, Caprivi was selected to replace Chancellor Otto von Bismarck, who had been forced out of the position by the new Kaiser, Wilhelm II; Caprivi in turn was replaced by Vice Admiral Alexander von Monts. Monts, a veteran naval officer, opposed Caprivi's policy on coastal defense, and instead proposed building four new 10,000-metric-ton (9,800-long-ton; 11,000-short-ton) Brandenburg-class battleships. These ships replaced what would have been the last two of the coastal defenders for which Caprivi had called. This set Germany on the trend of building large, ocean-going battleships for the next two decades. Indeed, Grand Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz characterized the period the Siegfried and Odin classes were built, up to the passage of the First Naval Law in 1898, as the "wasted decade". (en)

  • 德国岸防舰列表包含所有德意志帝国海军在1880年代至1890年代初建造的岸防舰。在1880年代前后,德意志帝国海军建造一系列岸防舰,以保护其在北海和波罗的海的海岸线。在1870年代至1880年代早期,德意志帝国海军建造许多各种设计的铁甲舰。然而,在1880年代中期,由于对萨克森级铁甲舰性能上的不满,以及绿水学派的兴起,时任帝国海军司令列奥·冯·卡普里维放弃大规模主力艦的建造,转而青睐岸防舰和鱼雷艇。因此,下一代大型军舰齐格弗里德级要比早期的铁甲舰小得多,而且装备的主炮只有3门大口径火炮。这些舰只被用来保卫德国港口。其中6艘建于1888年至1894年间。另外两艘在1892年至1896年间的建造过程中针对前级进行设计改进。 1898年至1904年间,所有8艘岸防舰都进行大规模现代化改造,包括延长舰体,并为其配备新的锅炉。1914年8月第一次世界大战开始时,所有8艘舰只都被短暂调派到第六战列分舰队。然而到1915年8月后,她们又因为舰体老旧而陆续退役,并被降格为次要角色。1919年战争结束后,所有这些舰只都从中除籍,随后报废。其中三艘,伏里施乔夫号、奥丁号和埃吉尔号被改装成商船,服役到1930年前后。其余几艘在1920年代早期被拆解。 这些岸防舰结果只是暂时改变德国舰队的发展方向。1888年,在齐格弗里德级和奥丁级还没有开建之前,卡普里维就被选中来取代奥托·冯·俾斯麦的德国总理之职,后者被刚登基的德皇威廉二世逼迫离开这个位置,而卡普里维后来又被海军中将所取代。蒙茨是一位资深海军军官,他并不支持卡普里维之前拟定的海防政策,并提议建造4艘新的10,000公噸(9,800長噸;11,000短噸)勃兰登堡级战列舰。这几艘舰艇取代卡普里维计划中的最后两艘岸防舰。这使德国在接下来的二十年里走上建造大型远洋战列舰的道路。事实上,阿尔弗雷德·冯·提尔皮茨曾把从齐格弗里德级和奥丁级开始建造,直到1898年第一个海军法通过的这段时期描述为“荒废的十年”。然而由于全部订单被分配给德国本土几家不同的船厂履行,这批舰只完工后,德国船厂的海军舰只建造能力得到提升。另外,大批海军官兵通过在齐格弗里德级和奥丁级舰只上受训而得以成长起来。 (zh)
