Wolfsschanze - Location of Officer's Quarters?

#1

Dear Wolfsschanze experts,

Does our knowledge of the Wolfsschanze complex extend far enough to know the location of the quarters of individual officers? I ask because I am trying to locate the quarters of Major-General Walter Scherff when he was present at the FHQ there. I know from the memoirs of one of the researchers in his department that he slept down the hall from Dr. Morell, who was called one day to see to Scherff when he fell ill.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Kind regards,
Andy

Andy, the german term "Lageplan" in a reference to the topic "Wolfsschanze" throws out many interesting results, maybe there is something for you...

Good luck for your further researches!

Du you know if he had his own quarters. Otherwise he might have slept in the guest bunker

Thank you for your contributions.

If the account of his researcher is correct, that he was quartered down the corridor from Dr. Morell, then he must have lived in Bunker no. 17 on this plan:
