Heeresversuchsanstalt Kummersdorf
Heeresversuchsanstalt Kummersdorf, Military research facility in Am Mellensee, Germany.
The Heeresversuchsanstalt Kummersdorf-Gut encompasses 3,200 hectares with 160 buildings, including testing facilities, bunkers, barracks, and shooting ranges in Brandenburg.
Established in 1870 as an artillery range, the complex expanded into a major weapons testing ground during World War I and II, developing rockets and military vehicles.
The site contains structures from multiple periods: Imperial Germany, Weimar Republic, Third Reich, and Soviet occupation, representing various military architectural styles.
Access to the facility requires guided tours through the Historical Technical Museum due to safety concerns regarding unexploded ordnance and unstable structures.
The water tower, built in 1913 and operational until the 1980s, stands as one of the preserved monuments within this former military research complex.
