EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph captures the expansive Nordholz Zeppelin Base in northern Germany during the First World War, with a focus on the reconstructed and extended Zeppelin shed on a turntable. Circa 1914-1918, this image showcases the impressive infrastructure developed for the German military's Zeppelin program. The shed, now measuring an impressive length of 200 metres, was essential for the assembly, maintenance, and deployment of these massive airships. Zeppelins were utilized primarily for reconnaissance and transport missions during the Great War. Their ability to remain aloft for extended periods and cover vast distances made them invaluable assets for gathering intelligence and delivering supplies to troops in remote locations. The shed's turntable allowed the Zeppelin to be easily maneuvered, ensuring efficient use of the facility's resources. The reconstruction and extension of the shed at Nordholz reflect the German military's commitment to advancing their Zeppelin technology and expanding their capabilities. The fields surrounding the base can be seen in the photograph, providing ample space for the takeoff and landing of these colossal airships. The image offers a unique perspective on the industrial scale of the war effort during this period, highlighting the ingenuity and determination of the German military in harnessing the power of the skies for their strategic advantage.
