The SS General von Steuben (formerly called the München (after Munich), but renamed in 1938) was a German luxurious passenger ship which was turned into an armored transport ship in World War II.

The 14,600-ton liner set sail from Pillau in the bay of Danzig (now Gdańsk, Poland) on February 10, 1945, her destination being Swinemünde. On board were 2,000 wounded soldiers, 320 nurses and 30 doctors as well as over 1,000 refugees. Just after midnight, two torpedoes from the Soviet submarine S-13 hit the Steuben. According to 659 survivors, she sank within about twenty minutes. Around 4.500 people died in the sinking of the General von Steuben.
