H. Beam Piper's "Space Viking" had a scene sort of like this in it.
One of the viking ships suffered drive damage, limped to the primative
world they were using as a base, and made its final landing there. The
vikings just used it as a base after that.

Of course, they enslaved the locals rather than the locals getting a
city.... so different outcome there
