That would make sense, thanks. It shows the Wilhelm Gustloff berthed there. I find it interesting that she would be tied up in a country that wasn't an axis ally, unless the photos are her returning to Hamburg from the port. :up:

Thank you for the information. These pictures are from her trip to Stockholm, Sweden and this is the last day of the trip. I assumed she was Sweden yet, but maybe this was a stop on the return home.
