U 968

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records U 968 as Submarine (second World War)-(1946). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

U 968 was a German U-boat that sank in Scottish waters in 1946, likely as a result of post-war disposal or scuttling. It lies in a known location, accurately recorded to the nearest 1m, but details of lives lost, cargo, or precise cause remain unrecorded; its significance lies in contributing to the historical record of wartime German naval presence in the region.
