60cm mörser 'karl'

Hi, I was reading the Guinness World Records from the year 1981 the other day (at work, I had NOTHING to do :roll: ). There was a statement that the germans used the mörser 'Karl' in the siege of Stalingrad!

I immediately thought that this had to be a false statement and that they must've used it in the siege of Leningrad instead. But not being an expert on these matters, I decided to turn to your help, fellow 'Axis History Forum'ers :)

So is this true, did they in fact use it in Stalingrad?

edit:
sorry about 3x posting, my net is jamming bad :(
and also sorry for not posting into the panzers and equipments, perhaps a moderator could move this?

As far as I know it was not used at Stalingrad, but rather used at Sebastopol and Lemberg.
