CFS Carp, Nuclear bunker museum in Carp, Canada.
The four-story underground facility spans 9,300 square meters, constructed with 32,000 tonnes of concrete and 5,000 tonnes of steel beneath ground level.
Between 1959 and 1962, the Canadian government constructed this nuclear fallout shelter as part of the national emergency preparedness during Cold War tensions.
The museum maintains preserved Cold War artifacts, military equipment, communications systems, and government facilities that showcase Canadian defense preparations of that era.
Located 30 kilometers west of Ottawa, the museum welcomes visitors Monday through Friday from 11:00 to 16:00 and weekends from 10:00 to 16:30.
The facility contains an emergency broadcast studio for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and a vault designed for the Bank of Canada gold reserves.
