In June 1667 the Dutch navy executed the most daring raid in its maritime history. Legendary admiral Michiel de Ruyter led his fleet up the Medway and destroyed the English fleet. It took the flagship HMS Royal Charles as trophy back to the Republic. Its stern piece is still to be admired in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, but will be temporarily on loan to the National Maritime Museum. It's for the first time in 350 years the richly decorated stern piece is back on English soil. Naval historian professor Andrew Lambert of King's College London explains the significance of the Battle of the Medway.
