MS STOCKHOLM
The only Swedish American Line passenger ship built at a Swedish shipyard was the Stockholm. She was constructed at Götaverken, Gothenburg in 1948. Her tonnage was 12,165 and her passenger capacity 400. She was rebuilt in 1953 and could then carry 570 passengers. In 1960 the ship was sold and is still in service as Völkerfreundschaft (Friendship between People).
While in Swedish American Line service, the Stockholm carried 103,145 transatlantic passengers and 9,226 cruise passengers.

MS STOCKHOLM
Built in Monfalcone, Italy for the Swedish American Line she was delivered in 1941. Europe was then at war and the Line was never able to take possession of this beautiful ship.
She was sold to Italy and later bombed and destroyed off the coast of Yugoslavia. The Stockholm was intended to be the largest ship in Swedish American Line service.
Her tonnage was 30,390 and her passenger capacity was 1,295.

TS DROTTNINGHOLM
Built in 1905 as the Virginian, she was purchased in 1920.
Her gross registered tonnage was 11,285 and she had a passenger capacity of 1,400. In 1930 the Drottningholm was modernized and her passenger capacity reduced to 900. The Drottningholm served the Swedish American Line until 1948 when she was sold and first renamed the Brazil, later the Homeland.
When the ship was dismantled in 1955 she was the oldest transatlantic passenger liner in service. During her Swedish American Line years she had carried 222,925 passengers. During World War II, the Drottningholm was chartered to the United States, British and French governments for the exchange of diplomats and prisoners of war. She made 14 voyages and carried a total of 18,160 passengers.

MS KUNGSHOLM
This is the fourth ship bearing this famous name (actually the first
SS Kungsholm was the Noordam of the Holland America Line which was chartered in 1923 because of the Trecentenary of the founding of Gothenburg). The present Kungsholm was built at the John Brown & Company (Clydebank) shipyard in Glasgow, Scotland, and delivered in 1966. Her gross registered
tonnage is 26,678 and cruise passenger capacity on long cruises 465.
Including the year 1972 the Kungsholm has carried a total of 19,752 transatlantic and 23,720 cruise passengers.
The Kungsholm is considered one of the most successful cruise vessels, and long cruises of the ultra modern liner are continually planned.
