Hanička, Artillery fort in Rokytnice v Orlických horách, Czech Republic.
The military complex contains six underground combat structures connected through corridors and halls spanning hundreds of meters beneath the surface.
Built in the 1930s as part of Czech border defenses, the fort was surrendered to Wehrmacht forces in 1938 without engaging in combat.
The fort carries a feminine name derived from a neighboring settlement and now functions as a museum of military fortification history.
Visitors can explore the fort through guided tours, with adult admission at 120 CZK and family tickets available for 340 CZK.
The Federal Ministry of Interior transformed parts of the underground system into a modern nuclear shelter codenamed Kahan during the Cold War period.
