Tver
The Tver was a Russian naval transport built in Arkhangelsk in 1839–1841, about 39 metres long, that served with the Baltic Fleet. In 1852 a great storm caught her in Tallinn Bay and she was wrecked. Her remains lie in the shallow water along the bay's southern shore, between the Russalka monument and the gate of the Old Harbour, close to the promenade where people walk today. The wreck was identified in the early 1990s by the maritime archaeologist Vello Mäss and is a protected monument.

Tver oli 1839–1841 Arhangelskis ehitatud umbes 39 meetri pikkune Vene mereväe transpordilaev, mis teenis Balti laevastikus. 1852. aastal tabas laeva Tallinna lahel suur torm ja see hukkus. Jäänused lebavad lahe lõunakalda madalas vees Russalka monumendi ja Vanasadama värava vahel, lähedal promenaadile, kus inimesed täna jalutavad. Vraki tuvastas 1990. aastate algul mereajaloolane Vello Mäss ja see on kultuurimälestis.
