Kamp seaplane base location
 
Hello,

I would like to know the location of the Kamp seaplane base used by the Luftwaffe in 1939-1945.

Google search finds nothing (possibly due to Google also searching camp...), except if Kamp is the same as Kampen village on Sylt island.

Thanks in advance

Laurent

Kamp was an village from Kreis Greifenberg/ Pommern, later named Kępa. Today this village doesn't exist. The place nearest Kępa was/is Ostrowo (the former Wustrow) - both belonged to the Gmina Trzebiatów (Treptow an der Rega).

Best wishes

Thanks Rasmussen,

With your help I have found Kepa/Kamp on German wikipedia, with a link with Google Maps with coordinates:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C4%99pa_(Trzebiat%C3%B3w)

One hour to close the subject, not bad time...

I have this as Kamp bei Kolberg, now Rogowo near Kolobrzeg. See image.

It's the same place (have a look on the left - there is Treptow/ Trzebiatów).

Best wishes
Rasmussen

Airfield and See-Flughafen can be clearly seen on Google Maps. Not much has changed.
