(Redirected fromZeppelin LZ21)

Zeppelin LZ 21 was the 21st airship built byCount Zeppelin and the ninth Zeppelin used by theImperial German Army. It carried the military designationZ VI.

History

[edit]

LZ 21 made its first flight on 10 November 1913. It was assigned the military designation Z VI.^[1]

At the outbreak ofWorld War I in early August 1914, Z VI was stationed inCologne at the airship base that later becameCologne Butzweilerhof Airport.^{[citation needed]} During theBattle of Liège, Z VI conducted a nighttime bombing raid on the forts surrounding the city on 6 August. This operation is believed to have been the first aerial bombing attack of World War I.^[2]^[3]

On 5 August 1914 at 10:00 p.m., the Zeppelin took off from Cologne carrying 200 kg of explosives. The bombing occurred at 3:00 a.m. on 6 August, killing nine civilians. Hit by severalshrapnel fragments from anti-aircraft fire, the airship suffered severe gas loss and was forced to make an emergency landing in a forest nearBonn. Due to the extent of the damage, Z VI was dismantled on site.^[4]
