THE PROJECT

 

 

Our goal is to save ship from being scrapped and then take her to

Europe and restore her to her original appearance. At the dock in

Europe, the ship shall serve as homes, hotels, student accommodation

and temporary refugee accommodation.

 

On board are also conference facilities, restaurants, a small theatre

and different spa facilities.

 

The MS Kungsholm is a strong historic symbol, as it is the last

remaining ship that served Swedish American Line, one of the

major shipping companies serving the nearly two million emigrants

from Scandinavia who crossed the Atlantic heading for North America

in the 1800s and 1900s. On board the Kungsholm shall thus be a museum.

 

Currently, the vessel is in Alang, India. She is very well

maintained and meets all requirements placed on a floating hotel.
