The lounge

The lounge was decorated with a mural by Professor Otto Arpke depicting the routes and ships of the explorers Ferdinand Magellan, Captain Cook, Vasco de Gama, and Christopher Columbus.

A lightweight Bluthner baby grand piano made of aluminum and covered with pigskin, was provided for the passengers' entertainment.
