Peenemünde research: Werk Süd (South works) region

Some images from our field trips exploring the ruins of the Peenemünde German Army research complex on Usedom island. This album features images of the ruins of the gigantic Fertigungshalle Eins (F1) V2 missile pre-production factory, and slave labour camp. And also show the area once enclosed by the almost equally giant Repair and Maintenance workshops, just 120 meters to the north of F1. The ghost of the V2 rocket can be seen in the plethora of decaying relics that still litter many of these locations. Please note: the areas illustrated here are not open to the public and there is a real danger from unexplored ordinance. Our investigations in these areas is not an endorsement of entry to these restricted and potentially dangerous areas. See our information page for details of expert guided tours of some of these areas.
