ervice history

The ship was used on the Genoa-Naples-South America voyages but also served North American ports. Until 1925 the SS "Giulio Cesare" and the SS "Duilio" were the two largest ships in the Italian merchant fleet. In November 1933 she was reconditioned and made ready for to serve on the Mediterranean-South Africa Service. In 1935 she was in collision with the German steamship "Barenfels" in the harbour of Gibraltar. This collision was deemed to be the fault of the German steamship and the captain and crew were detained along with the ship. In 1942, during the Second World War, SS "Giulio Cesare" was chartered to the International Red Cross for a time before being laid-up in the port of Trieste. The SS "Giulio Cesare" was sunk there in 1944, when, along with the SS "Duilio", she was attacked by Allied aircraft.
