Here are two very interesting pictures from the dramatic sinking of U2359 on 2. may 1945.

Read the exciting stories from a long journey with a lot of diving this summer. This includes diving on U2359 and the German cargo ship, carrying mini-submarines.

If anyone can translate this document found onboard U534, please post it in the comments or send an email. It probably wont reveal the most well hidden secrets of The Third Reich, but then again, the everyday life and operations on board the Uboots is interesting enough in itself.

Here is a gallery with some of the historical pictures of the Type XXIII. If anyone happens to know of any videofootage or additional pictures from the WWII of theese uboots, please give us a hint where to find them.

Here is the new footage from the wreck of U2359. The wreck is located on approx. 80 meters of water of the island Laesoe.

We translated an old article about a project to raise the U804, that was believed to carry tons of platinum.

We found this picture showing a bit of drama that took place when the U-534 was raised. As the picture shows, paparazzis was a also a problem before they got very famous themselves by causing the death of Princess Diana. The pilot is violating a restricted no-fly zone, that was authorised during the salvage operation, because the submarine did contain 14 torpedoes each carrying approx 500 kg of explosives. The mixture of a helicopter flying near the steelcables from the crane and tons of high explosives wasn’t very welcome …

We got a new gallery ready with a small sneak-peak into the many thousands of documents that was found inside the U-534.

A new gallery with some of the many things that was found on the German submarine U-534 in 1993. Not a lot of nazi-gold or the body of Hitler, but a lot of interesting things anyway.
Soon some of the many Nazi documents, that was found onboard will be online too.
