The class comprised the ships , , and . Originally ordered as wooden frigates, they were the first ironclads to be built in Italy, but the inexperience of the Italian shipyards and the redesign process produced lengthy construction times, such that only the lead ship was completed in time to see action during the Third Italian War of Independence in 1866. The first two ships were protected by a complete belt of wrought iron plating that was thick, while ''Conte Verde'' only received a partial iron belt. ''Principe di Carignano'' took part in the Battle of Lissa on 20 July 1866, where she led the Italian line of battle, but was not heavily engaged.
