The owners speak abit of English, but I’m 99% sure they don’t do a tour in English. Me and my friends went and it’s great just to walk through it and take everything in. :)

The closest thing to what you are after is a short train trip away to Bremerhaven. It contains the last model U Boat from WWII that was produced, sunk, then resurfaced, and fitted out to be a museum. It’s been finished with the interior, exactly the way it would have been in wwii, it’s even staffed by some old Germany Navy volunteers on the odd occasion by the door when you come aboard. Now that’s history!

U-Boat is simply German for ‘submarine’. So yes it is an Unterseeboot. But if you grew up speaking English then while every navy in the world had submarines, only the Germans had U-boats.

Yes, it's open. Kids are no problem. You should note that there is a great fish market eating point about four minutes walking (west) from the Museum. The ferry from mid-town would drop you off about five-minutes walking (strongly recommend the all-day ticket for getting around town, and the ticket works for buses, subways, and the ferries as well).
