Yesterday was a bullshit day, I got bad news. But the weather was very good!
I move around through the Dueneberg forest for relaxation. Dueneberg and Kruemmel is a quarter from the city in which I live.
In these forest was a very large ordnance factory located in both world wars. Today it is a lonelier and quieter place.
The ordnance factory was destroyed to the largest part on 7th April 1945 like the ordnance factory in the quarter Kruemmel. On this day 350 tons bombs were thrown off B-24 Liberator bombers from the 2nd/20th BG from 2nd AD on Dueneberg.
Few minutes later was the 14th/96th BG with his Liberator bombers over Kruemmel and threw off 452 tons bombs.
The ordnance factory in Kruemmel is older than in Dueneberg and was built from Alfred Nobel in the year 1865. He lived some years in our city and he invented the dynamite.
The photos which I made, are not good, but the photos obtain an impression of our landscape.
That is the largest received building in Dueneberg.
Grass, bushes and trees grew also at wartime on the roofs, these were cultivated for camouflage.
There are very many high dunes in this area. Because of these dunes the quarter of our city is called Dueneberg.
The forest consists of coniferous trees and deciduous trees.
The most lanterns are still located in the forest.
Only few were destroyed at the bomb attacks.
The walls are broke or over-grow.
And still more
The sun goes down and I must fast away from the forest. In the darkness it is very dangerous at this place.
Outside of the forest, a last view over a meadow...
