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.
