Opis

On January 30, 1975, NOAA designated the wreck of the USS Monitor, lying off the coast of North Carolina, as the Nation's first marine sanctuary. The Monitor was the prototype for a class of U.S. Civil War ironclad, turreted warships that significantly altered both naval technology and marine architecture in the nineteenth century. Designed by the Swedish-American engineer John Ericsson, the vessel contained all of the emerging innovations that revolutionized warfare at sea.
