  • SMS Schwaben ("His Majesty's Ship Schwaben") was the fourth ship of the Wittelsbach class of pre-dreadnought battleships of the German Imperial Navy. Schwaben was built at Wilhelmshaven Navy Dockyard. She was laid down in 1900, and completed in April 1904, at the cost of 21,678,000 marks. Her sisters were Wittelsbach, Zähringen, Wettin and Mecklenburg; they were the first capital ships built under the Navy Law of 1898, brought about by Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz. Schwaben spent the majority of her career as a training ship for German naval cadets. The ship served as a gunnery training ship in the Baltic from 1904 to 1914. After the start of World War I in August 1914, the ship was mobilized with her sisters as the IV Battle Squadron. She saw limited duty in the Baltic Sea against Russian forces, though the threat from British submarines forced the ship to withdraw in 1916. For the remainder of her career, Schwaben served as a training ship for navy cadets and later as a depot ship for F-type minesweepers. The ship was stricken from the navy list in March 1921 and sold for scrapping in that year.
