Imperial and Royal Naval Academy

The Imperial and Royal Naval Academy at Trieste in the Austrian Littoral and later at Fiume, Hungary (now Rijeka in Croatia), founded in 1802 at Venice as the Imperial Naval Cadet School, was the training college for all naval officers of the Austrian Navy, which in 1869 became the Imperial and Royal Navy of Austria-Hungary. Both the navy and the academy came to an end in 1918, when the Habsburg empire splintered into nation-states.
