Rhein-class monitor
The ''Rhein'' class of ironclad riverine monitors (''Flußkanonenboote'') were a pair of ships built by the German Imperial Navy in the aftermath of the Franco-Prussian War. The class comprised two ships, ''Rhein'' and ''Mosel''; both were built by the AG Weser shipyard in Bremen, in 1872–1874. They were armed with a pair of bronze cannon in a revolving gun turret. The ships were intended to protect the German border with France in the event of a conflict, but had short service lives, as war did not come. They served briefly in the defenses of Coblenz, starting in 1875, before being withdraw from service. The two ships were sold for scrap, apparently in December 1884.
==Design==
In the aftermath of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870–71, the Imperial German Navy decided that it needed to build river gunboats for service on the Rhine and Moselle to defend the German border. This decision came despite the Navy having seen the French Navy's negative experiences with similar gunboats during the war. The German Navy decided that two armored gunboats were necessary, and awarded the contract to AG Weser to design and build the vessels. The design staff based their work on a pair of Austro-Hungarian monitors, and , that had been recently built for service on the Danube.〔Hildebrand, Röhr, & Steinmetz, pp. 68–69〕
