English (Translate this text in English): The German steamship Hamburg went down during the Allied attack against the Lofoten in March 4, 1941, called Operation Claymore. Several installations and buildings were destroyed around the Lofoten islands under this combined attack by the British and a small group of Norwegian soldiers. It is estimated that nine ships were sunk. The MS Hamburg anchored in the port of Svolvaer, when a group of Allied soldiers attack the ship with heavy weapons. After several grenades exploding on the deck the German crew began to abandon the damaged ship. Two men of the German crew opened the bottom vents, and soon after the MS Hamburg disappear down in the depths. That the British sunk the ship as it is often being said is just propaganda. During Operation Claymore, it is believed that ships of a tonnage of 18,000 tons were sunk. The wreck of Hamburg is currently at six to twenty-five meters in the industrial port of Svolvaer, well intact where it rests on the starboard side. The wreck is easily accessible from shore.
