The Peenemünde Historical Technical Museum

The Peenemünde Historical Technical Museum occupies a former power station and observation bunker on Usedom Island, displaying military technology and exhibits related to rocket development. The collection documents technical innovations and equipment from this period of weapons research.

The location served as Europe's largest armaments center between 1936 and 1945, focused on rocket development. After the war, the buildings and infrastructure were transformed into a documentation center that preserves the history of this research facility.

The museum contains exhibits and documents that detail the technological developments of rocket engineers, including Wernher von Braun's contributions to aerospace advancement.

The museum adjusts its opening hours depending on the season, so check current visiting times before arriving. The site is best explored on foot, as the collection includes both indoor spaces and outdoor areas with various exhibits.

The outdoor area displays unexpected vessels and aircraft from different countries and eras, including a former missile frigate and fighter jets. This collection shows how weapons technology continued to develop after the war.
