Marineschule Mürwik Stabszug, Naval training complex in Flensburg, Germany.
Marineschule Mürwik is a red brick training and administrative complex shaped like the letter F, located near Flensburg fjord. The site contains multiple buildings dedicated to theoretical and technical instruction along with office spaces for management and teaching facilities.
The complex was built from 1939 to 1940 as a naval training workshop. After World War II, the building served as housing for war-disabled veterans until 1957, before returning to its original purpose.
The red brick structure shapes how naval training and daily routines are organized at this location. Its distinctive appearance along the fjord makes it a recognizable landmark for maritime education in the region.
The site is located near the coast and accessible from the city, but public access is limited to certain areas or guided tours. Visitors should check in advance about availability and any restrictions before planning a visit.
In May 1945, the complex was part of the Special Area Mürwik, which housed the last German government during the final days of World War II. This brief but historically significant period connects the training facility to one of the most dramatic moments in German history.
