The Fleets
Neptun Line /
Dampfschifffahrts Gesellschaft Neptun 1873-1974 Bremen
Formed by Johann Hermann Niemann and others in 1873 the
Dampfschiffahrts Gesellschaft Neptun started operations with six ships
from Bremen to Norway, Sweden, Denmark and the German Baltic ports. In
1875 a service from Bremen to Rotterdam and Amsterdam was started and
in 1877 a Bremen Hamburg service was begun, the company expanded
rapidly and new liner services were opened to the Mediterranean, Spain
and Portugal.
In the first World War DG Neptun operated only in the Baltic Area. DG
Neptun started World War I with seventy-six steamships, when the
war ended only fifty six ships were left.
In the years 1920, 1921 and 1922 the company started the liner service
again, which had been closed down at the beginning of World War I. The
first motorship the GAUSS entered the fleet in 1925. During the civil
war in Spain (1936-1939) the liner service to Spain was stopped.
At the beginning of World War II, the DG Neptun fleet consisted of
seventy-one ships, however, by the end of the war only thirteen
ships remained. The Bremen West Sweden service was started again in 1948,
followed in 1949 to Spain and Portugal. The motorship LIBELLE was the
first post war new building for the fleet. By 1950 several liner services
were recommenced.
DG Neptun became Sloman Neptun Schiffahrts-Aktiengesellschaft in 1974
after the Sloman Group bought a 75% holding.
