Bunker am Trageweg

The concrete structure rises prominently with its thick walls, measuring 16 by 15 meters at its base and containing four distinct levels.

Built in 1940, this high bunker provided protection for 751 civilians during Allied air raids targeting the industrial centers of Hanover.

The structure represents Germany's architectural transformation, as former military installations become residential spaces while maintaining their historical character.

Located at Trageweg 3, the bunker underwent extensive renovations in 2012 to create modern living spaces with garages on the ground floor.

Special machinery cut through 1.7-meter-thick concrete walls to create window openings, transforming this defensive structure into a family residence.
