In July 1690, Admiral Tourville led his fleet of 70 ships aboard her to victory against the combined English and Dutch fleet (Battle of Beachy Head). In 1692, the French fleet, with only 45 ships, again encountered the English and Dutch on May 20 off Pointe de Barfleur, who were numerically far superior with 97 ships. Some of the French ships were able to escape, but the SOLEIL ROYAL was so badly damaged that she had to be beached at Cherbourg for repairs and was set on fire by the English on May 23.

The ship model shown is a scale replica of the Le Soleil Royal 1669.
This model was made 100% by hand and with precision using traditional plank-on-frame construction with hull planking.
Among other things, exotic fine woods such as teak, mahogany, rosewood or mango are used, resulting in a valuable and decorative premium model as the finished product.
After completion, the hull is carefully sanded and painted where intended. The model is then coated with a protective clear varnish.
Ornaments and decorations (e.g. cannons, portholes, anchors, dials and wheels …) are made of brass, chrome or other high-quality metals.
The sails are made of fabric or silk, the masts of wood and the rigging of strong cotton threads. Some of these ropes have special knots that allow the ropes to be retensioned at any time.
Our models undergo strict quality control so that we can offer you a flawless product. Customer satisfaction is our highest priority. All models are delivered fully assembled.
