Thank your for posting the picture :)

I've seen pictures of a Jagdtiger in a similar location taken by members of the Danish Brigade in Germany. My guess is that the picture is taken on a field trip to the British forces in Sennelager.

IIRC there is another picture of Danish troops posing in front of an abandoned Tiger II near Hannover.

Here is another vehicle being inspected by troops from the Danish Brigade in 1947. Apparently a dump somewhere in Germany. The picture is from http://www.milhist.dk

The early King Tiger (Porsche turret) is from 316 Funklenk-Panzerkompanie, 130 Panzer Lehr division. The tank was lost in Chateaudun, France. The crater must be from a bomb blast from allied bombers. The tank must have drove into it.

Those dump pics show the collection point near Isigny sur Mer and probably have been posted hundreds of times on the internet.
In fact I've seen all the pictures of Homerr posted before. I do not really understand what they are doing in this thread.....

The photo of the three Jagdpanthers is identified in Pallud's "Battle of the Bulge, Then and Now," page 524, as being in three Jagdpanthers from the schwere Panzerjaeger-Abteilung 560 located between Bullingen and Dom Butgenbach in the Ardennes.
