Hello!

I'm new on this site. I registered myself just to answer your question. I collect postcards of the Austrian Navy - K.u.K. Kriegsmarine.

Here you can find some photo of the "Wien". Look under: Schiffe - Schlachtschiffe - Monarchklasse

In this site, to enter, you have to click on the big photo in the homepage.

I didn't find yet the name of the captain.

Wow these are exelent, thank you.

Yes the name of the capitan is a hard thing to find. I too had no luck finding it but I'll sure keep trying

Well, I dont know what exactly to make of it, but still...

this morning I went to see the WW1 themed Dadoh zlato za željezo exposition in Povijesni muzej in Zagreb, and one of the newspaper clipings shown refered to Lloyd's SMS Wien.

best regards
