Dante Alighieri was the first dreadnought battleship built for the Regia Marina (Royal Italian Navy). Completed in 1913, she was the first battleship built with her main armament in triple-gun turrets. The ship served as a flagship during World War I, but saw very little action other than the Second Battle of Durazzo in 1918 where she did not engage enemy forces. She never fired her guns in anger during her career. Dante Alighieri was refitted in 1923, stricken from the Navy List in 1928 and subsequently sold for scrap.
