Details of today's Welzow airfield

[gulredrel]

Hello,

just wanted to share some pictures I took today on my local tour.

These are the remains of what was former airfield Welzow. Airfield hosted Su-24 before the Soviets left East Germany in the 1990s.

For reference: https://www.mil-airfields.de/deutschland/welzow-flugplatz.html

Image of the runway approach lights has been taken here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/n2etMFriaet9SBss8

Following images are from objects on the eastern and southern decentralizing spaces.

and some more details

I guess some of the HAS were used in the late 90s early 2000s for some Techno / rave events and have been painted inside.
