Hi,

Yesterday I saw a tv-programm on the German television about a Grenzmuseum (Bordermuseum), the owner is Carl Jørgensen,
Tel.: +45 74 72 17 04 (google maps, street view: Tønder, Sønder Løgum Landevej 9, Danmark and then move to the border with Germany, you can see the museum).

Unfortunately the programm is not repeated so I can not say 100% sure what I saw, but I think I saw a Pzkw. I in his little museum, maybe a copy, maybe original.

Maybe one of the members knows more about this panzer?

Regards,
Wim.

I just wrote them an email to check, but I dont think they have any kind of armor in there, its mostly a national museum devoted to the Danish German relationship.

I shall report back when I receive an answer if I ever get one.

Hello VonForhud,

Thank you for sending an e-mail to the museum.
I could find only the phone-number, no website.

If you found a website please send me the adress.

Regards,
Wim.

I found the website, (didn't save it) no sign of anything tank-sized on it.

However I did find another museum in the same erea, Zeppelin and Garrison Museum Tønder

www.zeppelin-museum.dk...d=&lang=en

They have a Sherman tank on display, perhaps more Confused Confused

Thank you Walter and Michel, you did read my first post well.

Today I got an answer from the Danish "Turistbureau".
The museum has no website, the only way to contact mr. Jørgensen is by calling him.

Regards,
Wim.

Okay I stand corrected. Someone call the man.

The museum is open sat and sun.

Hi,

Finally after a long wait news!

Please look here, the museum is moved: www.graenselandsmuseet.dk/105071602

Is it a Pzkw I or is it a replica?

Regards,
Wim.

Hi,

And the sprocket wheel from the museums "tank" is at the back, the wrong side for a Pzkw I.

Regards,
Wim.

Definately a Universal Carrier chassis.

Quite a good reproduction.

I did write the museum. They never answered me. So I forgot all about it.

Maybe a German wartime conversion?
