SS Volturno was an ocean liner that caught fire and was eventually scuttled in the North Atlantic in October 1913. She was a Royal Line ship under charter to the Uranium Line at the time of the fire. After the ship issued SOS signals, eleven ships came to her aid and, in heavy seas and gale winds, rescued 521 passengers and crewmen. In total 135 people, most of them women and children in lifeboats launched unsuccessfully prior to the arrival of the rescue ships, died in the incident.

  • Die Volturno (II) war ein 1906 in Dienst gestelltes Passagierschiff der britischen Reederei Uranium Steamship Company, das für den Transatlantikverkehr gebaut worden war und Passagiere, Fracht und Post von Rotterdam über Halifax nach New York brachte. Am 9. Oktober 1913 zerstörte mitten auf dem Nordatlantik ein Feuer das Schiff, wobei 136 Passagiere und Besatzungsmitglieder ums Leben kamen. Es war das verheerendste und meistpublizierte Schiffsunglück seit dem Untergang der Titanic 18 Monate zuvor. Der Brand auf der Volturno zählt zudem zu den größten durch Feuer verursachten Schiffstragödien. (de)
