1665 celestial phenomenon over Stralsund refers to reports from Stralsund, Swedish Pomerania (now Germany) during 1665 of unusual flying ships allegedly seen over Stralsund, now sometimes considered UFOs in a modern context. These ships were described as being dark-grey or having a color being "that of the rising Moon" and sometimes said to be covered by a dome like that of a hat as well as being saucer-shaped like a plate, often said to be seen flying over St. Nicholas Church near the Baltic Sea, where they would hover until the evening.

Some reports describe ships of various sizes battling each other in the sky over the Baltic Sea, which was viewed as an omen from God.[1][2][3][4]
