Secret World War Two Luftwaffe Base Captured by the United States Army in 1945 | Urban Exploration
Ойын-сауық
This video was filmed in Germany with MMP Exploration.
We visit the World War Two Luftwaffe Complex that had a Heated Hangar at Fliegerhorst Venlo.
This building was disguised as a farm house with decorative bricks and arches. It was in reality a Heated workshop for servicing and repairing Me109's and later in the war Me262's.
This Epic Nazi Airbase was captured by the Allied Forces in 1945. The remaining German forces were allegedly rounded up and shot.
There is a wall section scattered with small arms fire which would cooperate with this theory. We also visit a concrete arch hanger that was used by the Nazi forces under command of Adolf Hitler and his henchmen.
In 1941 the air base covered an area of 1800 ha. There were three paved runways (2 × 1450 m, 1 × 1200 m) with electric runway lighting consisting of about 2000 lamps. The airbase had radar guidance and more than 48 km of roads. More than 2000 people were employed at the Venlo-Herongen airbase, 350 of whom were Dutch and around 1800 German. The air base had a Main Workshop hangar and 99 aircraft hangars, of which 20 were heating halls, 37 were unheated brick halls and 42 were unheated arched halls.
Approximately 585 Allied aircraft were shot down from this airbase. There were 2500 dead and prisoners of war on the Allied side and 170 dead and wounded on the German side.
On 9 January 1944, some 65 aircraft were stationed in Venlo-Herongen. Of these, 37 belonged to I./NJG 1, including a Do 217N, an Fw 190, four He 219A-0, two Ju 88R-2, two Bf 110G-2, 20 Bf 110G-4, one Bf 110B, one Fw 58C, one Fi 156, one Kl 35A, one Ar 66C, one Bf 108D-1 and one Bü 131D. Another five aircraft (all Ju 88C-6) belonged to the reconnaissance squadron of NJG 1 and 23 aircraft to Luftdienstkommando 2/3: two Bf 109D, one He 70F, six Do 17E, eleven Do 17F, one Do 17Z and two Ju 88a

Hello Kernow. We will be returning here to see what’s over the fence
The Me 262 was never here. Other Nachtjäger were, like Me 110.
Very interesting, great drone footage. 👍👍 Cheers.

Did giggle at your response to....if you don’t keep your eyes on the ground you might die 😂 I’d be grateful if you don’t die won’t make good footage. It amazes me how much is still standing if only these things could talk.
