A German three-masted schooner in Øresund

(Additional info (19 July): It appears that this is the German  3-mast-topsail schooner  Albatros.)
This German three-masted schooner tonight sailed northwards in Øresund. A gorgeous sight! Unfortunately the ship had turned off its AIS, so I did not get its name. If somebody can help me to recognize the schooner, I would be very grateful.

    Hei,

    Gjorde litt research, og er rimlig sikker på at dette er SS Thor Heyerdahl på vei til Larvik. Ser henne i fjorden her nå. Nydelig!

      Thank you vegard for you comment. I made a little additional research, based on which the ship on my picture appears to be the German sail training ship Albatros. But it is of course of the same type as the SS Thor Heyerdahl.

      Here is a nice pic of the Albatros:

      Hopefully the Thor Heyerdahl will also show up here soon!
