The 9 Euro entrance fee for visiting the museum in the submarine is money well spent

British submarine in good condition. The submarine “H. M. Submarine Otus ”of the Oberon class was launched in 1962. It is 90.70 m long, 8.10 m wide and has a draft of 4.50 m.

In Sassnitz on the Jasmund Peninsula, you can delve into the depths of your imagination
and truly explore the unique world of a submarine.

Every day, all adventure seekers can go diving in Rügen's largest port town. Over eight meters wide and 90.7 meters long, the H.M.S. Otus floats beneath the pylon bridge in the city harbor.
The Oberon-class submarine served in the Royal Navy for 28 years with a crew of 68 until it was decommissioned in early 1991.
"Her Majesty's Submarine OTUS" was deployed on behalf of the Queen, primarily off the Falkland Islands and in the Persian Gulf. The almost completely preserved interior provides a vivid and detailed depiction of the working and living conditions of the former six officer ranks and 62 enlisted personnel. Everything here, from the lighting to the color, has been left as original as possible.
Special highlights on the H.M.S. OTUS include the command center with two functioning periscopes that visitors can operate, as well as an audio system. Typical submarine sounds can be heard in the individual sections of the boat, such as the hammering of the diesel and electric engines in the engine room, the clatter of mess utensils in the galley, the combat alarm in the torpedo room, and the haunting "ping" of the sonar. Upon request, knowledgeable staff members provide special insights into the various departments and technical areas of the submarine. And the smell, former crew members claim, is still the same as it was 40 years ago.

Those who particularly enjoyed the experience can purchase a souvenir, such as a model of the submarine, baseball caps, key chains, mugs, magnets, T-shirts, and much more.

The submarine is located in the Sassnitz city harbor below the pedestrian bridge. The boat is equipped with original furnishings, and information boards provide facts and details. Every day, visitors can delve into the depths of their imagination and explore the unique world of the submarine H.M.S. Otus. At the bow, you slip through the emergency exit into the torpedo room and start your tour. The almost completely preserved furnishings allow you to vividly recreate the working and living conditions of the former 6 officer and 62 crew members.

A fascinating world of my own that I, as a "lowland Tyrolean", cannot imagine!
You can't imagine how 68 people can work, live and live together in this small space. Without proper visual contact with the outside world.
And then wage war too...

Be sure to visit!

Very interesting submarine museum. You can go in and out via stairs and don't have to use ladders like back then. But you still have to go through the hatches inside.

The submarine doesn't really belong here - it actually has no connection with Sassnitz. A tourist attraction has been created: the decommissioned British submarine "HMS Otus-S 18" of the Oberon Class is moored in the town harbor of Sassnitz. It is one of the largest non-nuclear submarines. When submerged, it displaces 2410 tons of water. HMS Otus was commissioned in 1963. It was in service for 28 years.

The 90-meter-long, 8-meter-wide submarine, with a crew of almost 70, served in the first submarine squadron until 1991 and was stationed primarily off the Falkland Islands and in the Persian Gulf. After its decommissioning, it was converted at the Volkswerft Stralsund shipyard for use as a museum boat. The original furnishings and information panels provide authentic information about the crew's working and living conditions.
