About the project

Peenemünde I

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

This project is organized by NiG e.V., a german non-profit and non-government organization. In this project we work together with the historic technical museum of peenemünde. The Peenemünde Historical Technical Museum is working on the history of the creation and use of weapons during World War II. The exhibitions document who worked in Peenemünde, how people lived and why the enormously elaborate weapon projects were carried out.

💼 What the programme involves

In this Camp, the Volunteers will maintain ancient monuments on the area of the Historic Technical Museum. The most important monument to be preserved is an old bunker which was build in the second world war. There, 35 people (women, men and two children) survived a bombing in 1943. Also the volunteers will maintain an old underbridge.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteers will stay in trainers at a youth hostel. 

🍲 Food

There will be someone cooking for the volunteers.

📍 About the location

Peenemuende is located in the northern part of the island Usedom. Between 1936 and 1989 the region was restricted (for army use only), therefore the nature in the surroundings has developed undisturbed. Looking back in history of Peenemuende participated in the development of the V-rockets and today is a memorial as well as a technical historical information centre reminding us of it.
