Scientific Collection of Defense Engineering Specimens

The Scientific Collection of Defence Engineering Specimens (WTS) was founded in 1961/62. At that time it was called "Collection for Weapon and Design Studies" and was based at the Bundeswehr Technical Centre 91 in Meppen/Emsland. In 1982, the collection moved to its current location in Mayener Straße 85-87 in Koblenz-Luetzel. Due to its vast exhibition space of more than 7,000 m², it is one of the most important collections of defence technology in Germany.
