About this audio guide
This guide to the Wildpark Grafenberg in Düsseldorf turns on a winter night in nineteen forty-four, when a British bomber returning from a raid on Essen met a German night fighter over the forest. It follows the crew of that aircraft, a Canadian wireless operator, a New Zealand pilot, and the archaeologists who came looking decades later. Best heard beside the red deer and wild boar enclosures.
