Kolkwitz Bunker, Cold War command post in Kolkwitz, Germany
The Kolkwitz Bunker is an underground military facility built with reinforced concrete structures spanning three levels across a foundation measuring 42.5 by 18 meters.
Constructed in the late 1960s, this bunker served as the command center for the East German Air Force's 1st Air Defense Division during the Cold War.
The facility represents the military infrastructure of the German Democratic Republic and now operates as a museum documenting Cold War defense strategies and technologies.
Guided tours are available every second Saturday at 9:30 AM with advance registration required, and the interior maintains a constant temperature between 12-15 degrees Celsius.
The bunker features a completely preserved air situation map that was central to coordinating East German air defense operations across the southern airspace.
