Barrack Wilhelmine, Documentation center and museum in Schwanewede, Germany.

The museum occupies a preserved barracks building with 11 exhibition rooms and seminar facilities across 600 square meters of space.

During World War II, the barracks housed forced laborers who worked on the U-Boot-Bunker Valentin, accommodating up to 12,000 workers at its peak.

The permanent exhibition details the transformation from a labor camp to a marine hospital, evangelical hospital, and finally a Bundeswehr military facility.

Located at An der Kaserne 122 in Schwanewede, the museum operates under the management of Heimatverein Heimatfreunde Neuenkirchen with regular guided tours.

The facility includes specific exhibition areas focusing on Lebensborn, examining family structures and SS ideologies during the National Socialist period.
