Battle of Tromsø

1812 battle of the Gunboat War

The Battle of Tromsø was fought on 2 August 1812 between the British and Dano-Norwegian navies as part of the Gunboat War. HMS Horatio, a 38-gun British frigate under the command of Captain Lord George Stuart, was fired at by the 4-gun Dano-Norwegian cutter No. 97 which fled to Tromsø after discovering the ship's true identity. On the next day, Stuart sent a cutting out party of 80 men to capture No.
