About the Relic & Process
This mounted relic is an engine storage tank fragment from a Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausf.E (Sd Kfz 181) Tiger Tank, part of Panzer-Abteilung (FkI) 301. This particular component, which housed essential items such as batteries and electrical components, was originally stored in the engine bay, with much of the original paint still intact. The relic comes from one of the last Tiger tanks destroyed in the Ruhr Pocket, during the April 1945 battles near Elsdorf, south of Düsseldorf.

At the end of World War II, many of the large tank chassis and steel hulks were removed and recycled for their valuable materials. However, smaller components, like this storage tank, were often left behind on the battlefield or taken by locals for repurposing in everyday life. These pieces, now rare, provide a tangible connection to the war’s closing days and the fierce fighting of Panzer-Abteilung 301 as they defended Germany during the final Allied push.

Alongside this storage tank fragment, other recovered items include track link pins and rings, engine components, and turret items. These pieces offer a unique opportunity to own a part of the legendary Tiger I, an iconic symbol of German armored might during World War II.
