The West German flagship Bremen was reconstructed from the French troopship Pasteur, and introduced on the North Atlantic run by Norddeutscher Lloyd between New York, Cherbourg, Southampton (6 days) and Bremerhaven (7 days) in July 1959.
She was billed as a "sea-going hotel" with endless amenities for a relaxed crossing. First class reflected the calm elegance of a private club. The larger Tourist class offered the warmth of a holiday resort.
