Hochbunker Blumenstraße, Air raid shelter in Munich, Germany

The Hochbunker Blumenstraße stands as a six-story square structure with 1.3-meter-thick walls and 2-meter ceilings, designed for maximum protection during wartime.

Built in 1941 under architect Karl Meitinger's supervision, this bunker formed part of Munich's network of 40 similar structures constructed through World War II.

The building's exterior design follows baroque defense tower architecture, integrating historical elements to match Munich's architectural landscape of the 1940s.

The structure provided shelter for 750 people during air raids and maintained operational civil protection facilities with dedicated ventilation and sanitary systems.

Despite post-war demolition plans, this bunker received preservation status and currently undergoes transformation into an architecture center following a 2021 decision.
