A V2 rocket outside the Historical Technical Museum in Peenemuende. What it does have are the ruins of the Nazis' biggest military development complexes, where the V2 rocket was born, and one of the highest levels of support for the right-wing populist Alternative for Germany (AfD) party ahead of this month's general election. I don't know if the AfD as a new party can do better but I'm hopeful." Peenemuende's impressive historical museum attracts 160,000 visitors a year from around the world, including the countries targeted by the V2 in the 1940s: Britain, France, Belgium and the Netherlands. Koehler of the Peenemuende museum stressed his team believed it had clear responsibilities given the site's heavy historical burden.
