The Hamburg America Line ran cruises along the Côte d'Azur in the winters between 1904 and the outbreak of the First World War. The ship pictured here bears the name Prinzessin Heinrich above its paddle wheel; however, the actual Prinzessin Heinrich that plied this route, only had one funnel. The ship was acquired by the Hamburg America Line in 1904. This is the English version.

Riviera 14.
