Krasny Vympel Memorial Ship
Мемориальный корабль «Красный вымпел»
A 1911 gunboat moored at the fleet embankment, the first warship of the Soviet Pacific Fleet, now a floating museum.
The Krasny Vympel (Red Pennant) was originally built in 1911 as the Imperial Russian guard vessel Admiral Zavoyko. From 1922 it became the first warship of the Soviet Pacific Fleet, and it took part in Far Eastern operations during the Civil War. Since 1958 it has been moored at the fleet embankment as a memorial ship, making it one of Russia's oldest floating museum ships. Visitors can explore its decks, guns and cabins, which display the early history of the Pacific Fleet. It is right next to the submarine museum, so the two can be visited together. Admission costs a few hundred rubles, and opening hours vary, so check on site.
