MS Deutschland is a German-registered cruise ship owned and operated by Peter Deilmann Cruises.

She carries 513 passengers and 260 crew members. She has a gross tonnage (GT) of 22,400 tons and has seven passenger accessible decks.^[2]

The German television show Das Traumschiff (The Dream Ship), which was similar to the US-made show The Love Boat, was set aboard the Deutschland.
