An original tail unit set in concrete is reminiscent of an aircraft shot down near Vogelsberg. On March 7, 1945, shortly before the end of the war, a Lancaster flew over the Sömmerda - Sprötau - Vogelsberg area, where the machine was shot down by the German Wehrmacht. All occupants died - except for the English pilot. The survivor was picked up by the SS some time later and shot. First buried in the Vogelsberg cemetery, he was dug up by strangers a short time later and abducted. His whereabouts are still unknown today.

The tail unit of the machine that was shot down on March 7, 1945 is embedded in the ground here in the forest as a souvenir.

@Ralf: May I ask where your information about the aircraft part comes from?
Was the crash site there too? Where can you find out more about it?
I'm asking for Flugzeugforum.de where this monument is currently located. topic is.
