{{There is an untold story about the cargo, which was not gold, but concerns various objects of esoteric value to the wartime government and its backers. Arthur Borges/Zhengzhou, China
In February, we were told that the exhibition would open "in July", but now we're being told "next year". That seems a very long delay. What caused it? 81.159.58.45 ( talk) 23:04, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
Were there any protests over the decision to cut up the hull? It could be regarded as an act of vandalism. Drutt ( talk) 20:37, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
This concerns the claim about the presence of T11 torpedoes on board the U-534. When U-534 was still on display at Birkenhead at the Historic Ships Museum (and shortly before the museum closed), I and a friend went on a guided tour of it. Speculative reasons for the U-534's fleeing rather than surrendering were covered by the tour guide, and also explained in literature at the exhibition. They centered on the possibility that high ranking Nazis were trying to escape to South America, and that gold and/or other treasures might be on board. There was no mention made of the discovery of any T11 torpedoes. That is not evidence they weren't there, of course, but it does perhaps add to the dubious nature of the claim - had they been present, it would seem likely that the tour guide and the museum exhibition would have made some mention of them. -- Boing! said Zebedee ( talk) 15:37, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
This project broke 17 !! Enigma M4 messages from Uboat U534 the last two weeks. They used a software Turingbombe. More messages will follow. They used 112 CPU cores.

I gather that from salvage to final display the project was plagued with financial problems. Details of these issues should be included in the article as these may help explain the delays, the site selected for display and the cutting of the boat into four sections. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.176.105.141 ( talk) 11:48, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Could somebody explain why a German sub recovered from Danish waters ended up in British hands? Sounds like just another example of Anglo-Saxon predator capitalism. -- Reibeisen ( talk) 14:39, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
Businessman Karsten Ree, who financed her recovery, worked hard to find a suitable solution.
After the fall of France in World War II Liverpool became the centre of operations against German u-boats in the Battle of the Atlantic.
Coupled with Merseyside’s rich maritime history it was decided the perfect home for U-534 would be the Historic War- ships Museum on Wirral."
The Danish guy who paid for the recovery gave it to the museum. MartinezMD ( talk) 20:24, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
The Design section, the Armament section, and the infobox all disagree on how many and which AA gun(s) U-534 carried. Some of it seems to just be copied from the default armament of the class. The available sources also contradict but they do agree that the AA armament was changed during at least one refit. 2603:7080:A402:9099:3801:6037:7958:FA6B ( talk) 06:02, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
