Bunkermuseum Emden, Military history museum in Emden, Germany.
Description
The Bunkermuseum Emden is housed in an authentic World War II bunker structure and displays photographs, documents, and objects from that period. The exhibition illustrates how the defensive installations were built and what equipment was stored there.
History
The bunker was built in the 1930s to protect the population from air raids, which later became intense over the city. After the war, the facility was converted into a museum in 1995 to preserve this history.
Culture
The museum tells stories of people who took shelter in this bunker, making their experiences during air raids tangible and real. You can see how civilians lived at that time and understand the fear they had to endure.
Practical
The museum is reached via Holzsägerstraße and can be explored on foot, as the bunker installations are arranged underground. Visitors should expect uneven floors and low ceilings, so sturdy shoes are recommended.
Did you know?
The bunker complex is preserved in its original condition and shows the exact layout as it was used during the war. Visitors can walk into the narrow corridors and experience the rooms where hundreds of people stayed at the same time.
