21 cm Mörser 10

The 21 cm Mörser 10 (21 cm Mrs 10) was a heavy howitzer used by Germany in World War I (although classified as a mortar (Mörser) by the German military).

It replaced the obsolete 21 cm Mörser 99, which lacked a recoil system.

Before the 21 cm Mörser 10 was commissioned for mass production, a small test series of 21 cm Versuchmörser 06 ("test mortar") was given to the German army.

Serial number 3 of these rare pieces is now exposed at Red Cliffs, Victoria.
