Indfødsretten [1](Danish, lit. Citizenship) was a 64-gun ship of the line in the Royal Dano-Norwegian Navy commissioned in 1787. She was one of a class of five ships designed and constructed by naval architect Henrik Gerner.[2] [Note 1]

Indfødsretten was constructed at Nyholm to a design by naval architect Henrik Gerner. She was laid down on 27 June 1784, launched on 27 April 1786 and the construction was completed on 12 October 1787.[3]
Career
During the Battle of Copenhagen on 2 April 1801, this blockship was commanded by Captain A. de Thurah with a complement of 394 sailors. The ship suffered heavy casualties in the battle; 21 were killed and 41 wounded. The ship struck her colours at 15.00.[4][5] After her capture, Indfødsretten was burnt, along with all the other captured Danish warships except Holsteen.[2]
