SS ROTTERDAM
The Rotterdam, known as "The Grande
Dame," came into service for Holland-America Line in
1959. She is the largest passenger liner ever built in
the Netherlands.

The Rotterdam was the last great Dutch "ship of state",
employing the finest artisans from Holland in her
construction and fitting out process. With a career
spanning forty years, she was also one of the most
successful passenger ships of all time. She sailed
from 1959 until her final retirement in the fall of
2000.
SS Rotterdam is now a hotel and tourist attraction in
her old home port of Rotterdam. The ship has largely
maintained her original character and remains in good
condition. She was restored in Poland and Germany
and on August 4, 2008 returned to the city of Rotterdam.
After completion of the refurbishment the ship will be
opened to the public.
