Bodenwöhr Waldwerk - Mtt Bf 109 K-4 assembly lines 1944 - 1945

[Fliegerhorst]

Hello Marc

yes , I will take some pictures.
in our wertheim history there is a lack of information about these days.
My parents arrived by train in 1946 as displaced persons from CSSR via Vienna. They were sent to the former Luftwaffe barracks at Wertheim Reinhardshof. A lot of damaged airplanes still being there. The people made pots for cooking of airplane material. Made pullovers of cable insulations etc.
I was reported that a company I worked for, recycled the airplanes, reused screws etc. .
There are still hangars.
One hangar was removed in 1948 from the hill where the airfield was located by contractor company Noell to Wertheim railway station, now used as storage room and fitness center.
I will take pics of all.
Here in the village Vockenrot, 1 km to the former airfield I know an old man who I can ask. And I know that one man here worked in aircraft repair.

Hi Fliegerhorst,

from me also many thanks for the new input. Your potential information sources have promise I guess. It would be great if you could check them by time. Like Marc said, pictures showing that places nowadays for example are very welcome. Many thanks for your offer!

Marc, are you still planning to visit bavaria? I think I can get a day off within the next weeks and could have a look on the documentation provided in Cham. I can give you some feedback on the quality of that library before you shoulder the long drive.
