U-Boot-Museum (Submarine Museum)

U-Boot-Museum (Submarine Museum) Review

A grim reminder of a different marine past is exhibited at this museum in Kiel-Laboe. The vessels of the much-feared German submarine fleet in World War I were mostly built and stationed in Kiel, before leaving for the Atlantic, where they attacked American and British supply convoys. Today the submarine U995 serves as a public-viewing model of a typical German submarine. The 280-foot-high Marineehrenmal (Marine Honor Memorial), in Laboe, was built in 1927-36. You can reach Laboe via ferry from the Kiel harbor or take B-502 north.
