Peenemünde, Germany


Peenemünde is a village in Mecklenburg-Vorpommen, Germany. It is located at the mouth of the River Peene, hence its name, meaning "Peene's mouth". The village covers 25 sq km (9.64 sq mi) and has a population of just over 300 people.

Today perhaps the only sight of interest in Peenemünde is the Peenemünde Historical and Technical Information Center. This is a World War II museum documenting the village's role in the production of the V2 rocket. It is part of the European Route of Industrial Heritage.
