Local nameFragata Dom Fernando II e Glória
LocationAlmada, Portugal

Dom Fernando II e Glória is a wooden-hulled, 50-gun frigate of the Portuguese Navy. She was launched in 1843 and made her maiden voyage in 1845. Built at the shipyard of Daman in Portuguese India, it was Portugal's last sailing warship to be built and also the last ship that undertook the Carreira da Índia, a regular military line that connected Portugal to its colonies in India since the beginning of the 16th century.

In 1865 she became the navy's replacement Artillery School training ship, a role she fulfilled until 1940. The ship remained in active service until 1878 however, when she made her last sea voyage, having travelled more than 100,000 miles, the equivalent of five circumnavigations of the world.
