The long and rich history of ‘La Grande Dame’
The ss Rotterdam has a long and rich history. “La Grande Dame” was constructed in Rotterdam, left Rotterdam and is now completely back in Rotterdam. The ss Rotterdam came into service for Holland-America Line as their flagship in 1959.
Built by the Rotterdam Drydock Company, she is the largest passenger liner ever built in the Netherlands, numbered among the most successful liners ever sailing the seven seas. The ship has largely kept her original character and remains in good condition.

The legendary former flagship of the Holland America Line, 228 meters long, 28 meters wide, 51 meters high, rich in history and renowned for its cultural-historical value is moored on the quay of the Derde Katendrechtsehoofd in Rotterdam.
