Detmar was an 1869-built, 32-metre (105 ft 0 in) long, German two-masted wooden schooner. It was owned by W. Philippi & C and had a home port of Hamburg.

On 26 February 1894 the ship was driven ashore and wrecked near Terschelling, the Netherlands. The crew members were rescued by local fishermen, who were later rewarded by the Emperor of Germany. Much of the cargo was salvaged and sold, as well as the inventory and the wreck itself. For over a year after the disaster, bags of sesame seeds washed up on Terschelling.
