U-461, Soviet submarine museum in Peenemünde, Germany
The submarine U-461 is 85.9 meters long and features multiple decks with preserved military equipment, control stations, and living quarters.
Built in 1962 at Factory No.112 Krasnoye Sormovo in Nizhny Novgorod, this Project 651 class submarine conducted North Atlantic patrols during Cold War operations.
The submarine interior displays life-size models of crew members positioned throughout different sections, illustrating daily naval operations of Soviet submariners.
Visitors can access the submarine daily from 10:00 to 17:00, though the narrow passages and steep ladders make it unsuitable for people with mobility limitations.
The vessel contains original cruise missile launching systems and torpedo tubes, making it one of few preserved Soviet submarines with complete military installations.
