Bavaria Film Studio---where Das Boot was filmed!

basilio · 08-25-08, 04:34 AM

Hello,
while I was in Munich, I made a visit to the Bavaria Film Studio, where the Das Boot movie was filmed.
There are some small scale models of the u-boot used in the movie, the turret and the interior.
I had been told by the guide that the bigger exterior model (1:1 scale) was actually sunk at the end of the movie, when there is the air attact.
More pictures are available here

Great pics, looks like an awesome place to visit.

I'm slightly confused about the 1:1 scale U boat being sunk- I heard it was the same U boat used in Indiana Jones just repainted? Perhaps I'm getting the order in which the films were made wrong...
