Hello kstdk
Wyrzutnia-in polish means->launcher.
I guess that You mean a test/launch site in Leba
(guess in german language in pre-war period Leba too).
This is a place (proof ) for rockets mainly
air to air type :Feuerlillie,Rheintochter;
ground to ground:Rheinboote.
Here You can find socklets of two radar types-Wurzburg Manheim and probalby ordinary Wurzburg Riese(?) used probably for quide/observe missiles.<-Beaviso is more advanced in radar knowledge.
Leba were used also as a test site for Prismen rollbombe Kurt.Planes were droping this jumping device into water of lake Lebsko.Planes probaly started from Slupsk (Stolp) airfield.
Thats all what is known (yet) to me.
This place (Leba-wyrzutnia) is avaiable nowadays and is main trip's destination in this area(nice dunes reported to be used for proofing DAK equipment).Leba is quite close to Darlowo.
For more details feel welcome to ask.
I expect to learn somoething new from You fellows!
I can bring into effect Your expectation-just let me know what is the most interesting subjct for You.
Below some of pics taken in Leba during 'students trip'-enjoy!

Hello Andrew
He - I thought it was Leba, because i could not find anything under the Name "Wyrzutnia" !!!! Of course because its a not a name of a place, but as you say Polish for Launcher !!!!
Leba is one of my "special places" of which i am interested, it has connection with testing of rockets and this has my attention.
Yes i am mostly interested in Luftwaffe places, radar - flak and test sites, but certainly also in coastalbatteries and other things, so keep the good things coming from over there, please.
I have been in contact with Beaviso over this forum, so yes - he is the man on radars i know !!!!
I like your pictures from Darlowo and Jelen - it is most interesting. Have there been testing of railroad artillery there also ??
Anything on the testing of DAK materials ?
Have you seen the other treads of interest in the equipment section: Marine and Luftwaffe radarsites and bunkerequiment etc etc. ?
Regards
Kurt

Hello again
The picture from Leba of the firing site: 2001 03 31 43.jpg
It is most likely the firing site for the Rheintochter rocket, see attc. photo / drawing - that is correct is it not ?? This system was used / tested from spring 1944 at Leba.
Regards
Kurt

Hello again
I'm glad that You like this places-me too.
-Jelen-Konewka was only a shelter for command train,probably later used for production as one of many objects from Geilenberger list.You can find it on the list provided on www (just forgotten the exact url-sorry) under the name Tomaszow.This complex of both rail-bunkers is also known as Gefechtstand Anlage Mitteor in polish : Jelen-Konewka.
Close to Jelen there is a second one similar to the first one object-the samy type-'railroad shelter'.Both have common features.
See plans below
Another rail bunker complex is Stepina-Strzyzow (Anlage Süd).Sorry for my mistake but here was hitler with mussolini not in Jelen.
See some nice pics:
