History: Sebastopols originated in Europe along the Danube River and around the Black Sea. They were called the Danubian goose by the British in the 1800s. Many times they are also nicknamed Sebs. In German, they are called Lockengans or Struppgans, meaning "curl-goose" and "unkempt goose". It's not known if the birds originated in the port of Sevastopol, Ukraine as the name implies, by the 19th century they were found in all the countries surrounding the Black Sea. The alternate name Danubian reflected their prevalence around the river Danube. Sebastopol poultry are a very popular goose breed.
