Beer Bomb Shelter

Not exactly as the name suggests as the 'shelter' is a small building that has a display/exhibition area. However there is a permanent display realting to a WWII incident where the pilot of a badly damaged Ju88 bomber took action to avoid crashing his doomed aircraft in to the town of Beer thereby saving a number of lives. The pilot survived the crash and is consequently considered a hero for his actions. Many years later the wreck was excavated and a large bomb was found and diffused. The bomb has been cleaned and restored and is now on display along with various information boards relating to the mission and it is worth 20 minutes of your time to check it out if in the area.
