Description The deserted German village of Hammelburg was recently the realistic setting for Military Operations on Urbanized Training.
Hammelburg has been uninhabited since the German Army evacuated the Bavarian city at the onset of World War II. Now it is part of the German Infantry School training area and is considered the premier MOUT training site in Europe. It is located 20 kilometers west of Schweinfurt and features a MOUT site with 120 buildings, a woodland fighting area, live fire facilities and an extensive sewer training facility.
