The Peder Skram-class frigate was a class of frigates built for the Royal Danish Navy in the period 1964–1967. Only two vessels in this class were ever constructed, Peder Skram (F352) and Herluf Trolle (F353). The ships were named after Danish admirals Peder Skram and Herluf Trolle

The ships were modernised in 1976–1978 and fitted with guided missiles. Herluf Trolle suffered a serious engine room fire in 1982 and was repaired by 1983. Both ships were placed in reserve in 1987 and decommissioned in 1990. Peder Skram is preserved and open to the public at the naval station in Copenhagen. Herluf Trolle was scrapped in Belgium in 1995.
