About the event

Remembering the SS Arandora Star
The SS Arandora Star was carrying 734 interned Italian men, 479 interned German men, 86 German prisoners of war and 200 guards because the men were being deported to Canada. Early on the morning of 2nd July 1940 it was torpedoed off the coast of Ireland. 805 men were killed, including Captain Moulton, 12 of his officers, 42 of his crew and 37 of the military guards.

To mark the 85th anniversary of the Sinking of the SS Arandora Star, on 2nd July 2025 we will hold a brief ceremony of commemoration to remember the thirteen Italian internees who lost their lives in the Arandora Star disaster.
