In this paper we study the supersingular locus of the reduction modulo $p$ of the Shimura variety for $\text{GU}\left( 1,\,s \right)$ in the case of an inert prime $p$. Using Dieudonné theory we define a stratification of the corresponding moduli space of $p$-divisible groups. We describe the incidence relation of this stratification in terms of the Bruhat–Tits building of a unitary group.

In the case of $\text{GU}\left( 1,\,2 \right)$, we show that the supersingular locus is equidimensional of dimension 1 and is of complete intersection. We give an explicit description of the irreducible components and their intersection behaviour.
