Norsk bokmål: «Blücher», en tysk krysser sjøsatt 1937, deltok i den tyske invasjonen av Norge i 1940 og ble senket etter å ha blitt truffet av granater og torpedoer fra norske kystfort ved Drøbak under slaget ved Oscarsborg festning. Skipet ledet invasjonsstyrken som skulle sikre hovedstaden Oslo natt til 9. april. Skipet sank med store tap av liv. Vraket ligger fremdeles på bunnen av Oslofjorden.

English: The cruiser Blücher (launched 1937), the lead ship of the German armada headed for Oslo, Norway, was sunk in the Oslofjord by Norwegian military at Oscarsborg Fortress during the Battle of Drøbak Sound on 9 April 1940, the first day of the German invasion of Norway (part of the Norwegian Campaign in World War II). By sinking the ship the Norwegian king and government were saved from being taken captive in the first hours of the invasion. The number of casualties is unknown, but the loss of life probably ranges between 600 and 1,000 soldiers and sailors. The wreck remains on the bottom of the Oslofjord.
