Bunkers in Wuppertal, Air raid shelter in Wuppertal, Germany.
Underground tunnels and concrete structures spread across Wuppertal form a network of shelters designed to withstand aerial bombardment during wartime periods.
More than 400 air raid shelters were constructed throughout Wuppertal between 1940 and 1943 to protect residents from bombing raids during World War II.
Former bunkers in Wuppertal now serve educational purposes, with guided tours and exhibitions explaining the impact of wartime events on local communities.
The Neumarkt bunker contains 40 rooms capable of accommodating 450 people, featuring narrow connecting corridors and multiple emergency exits.
Several bunkers have transformed into modern living spaces, with one structure in Langerfeld-Mitte undergoing conversion into residential apartments since 2010.
