Duitse immigratie via Nederlandse havens/German immigration via Dutch ports/Imigração alemã via portos da Holanda

(Dutch version using Google Translator)

Een opvallend feit in de geschiedenis van de Duitse immigratie naar Brazilië (inclusief de staat Rio Grande do Sul) is dat veel schepen met immigranten havens in Nederland hebben verlaten.

De belangrijkste havens in Nederland waren die van Amsterdam, Texel en Rotterdam.

Volgens historici gebeurde dit om verschillende redenen, waaronder het feit dat de landroute werd vergemakkelijkt door het vertrek door Nederland van een aantal oude koninkrijken van Duitsland.

Als gevolg hiervan wachtten immigranten vaak lang in Nederlandse steden voordat ze aan boord van het schip kwamen dat hen naar Brazilië zou vervoeren.

Ook volgens historici waren de instaplijsten op deze schepen verloren in de 2e Wereldoorlog.

Het is echter mogelijk dat er documenten in Nederland zijn die de bovengenoemde passagierslijsten kunnen verduidelijken.

Imigração alemã via portos da Holanda

Um fato marcante na história da imigração alemã para o Brasil (incluindo ai o estado do Rio Grande do Sul) é que muitos navios com os imigrantes saíram de portos da Holanda.

Os principais portos utilizados na Holanda foram os de Amsterdã, Texel e Roterdã.

Segundo os historiadores, isto foi feito por vários motivos, entre eles o fato de que rota terrestre era facilitada pela saída pela Holanda de alguns antigos reinos das Alemanha.

Em consequência disso, muitas vezes os imigrantes aguardavam um bom tempo em cidades holandesas antes de embarcarem no navio que os transportariam para o Brasil.

Também segundo os historiadores as listas de embarque nestes navios foram perdidas na 2ª grande guerra mundial.

No entanto, é possível que existam documentos na Holanda que possam esclarecer sobre as listas de passageiros citadas.

German immigration via Dutch ports

A striking fact in the history of German immigration to Brazil (including the state of Rio Grande do Sul) is that many ships with immigrants have left ports in the Netherlands.

The main ports used in the Netherlands were those of Amsterdam, Texel and Rotterdam.

According to historians, this was done for several reasons, including the fact that land route was facilitated by the departure by Holland of some ancient kingdoms of Germany.

As a result, immigrants often waited a long time in Dutch cities before boarding the ship that would transport them to Brazil.

Also according to historians the boarding lists on these ships were lost in the 2nd World War.

However, it is possible that there are documents in the Netherlands that could clarify the above mentioned passenger lists.
