Guided tour of the former temporary seat of the state government of North Rhine-Westphalia.

Experience a piece of history up close: guided tour through a bunker from the 1960s

Immerse yourself in the world of the Cold War and discover a unique bunker that was designed in the 1960s as a disaster control center for the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. In the event of a hot conflict, the evacuation of the population was to be organized here and the flow of refugees managed. After its abandonment in the 1990s, the bunker has retained almost all of its original equipment to this day - including the technical installations that make it an impressive contemporary witness.

Experience original technology from the 1960s: Teletype and telephone equipment, emergency power generators, water supply, air conditioning and heating - all in working order and unchanged. Particularly fascinating: a fully equipped broadcasting studio from the 1960s, which is still operational and gives you a unique insight into the communication possibilities of the time.

During the tour, you slip into the role of an official from the state government of North Rhine-Westphalia. At various points, you will have the opportunity to operate the historical equipment yourself and get a feel for the problems and tasks for which those responsible were prepared in an emergency.

This unique journey through time not only provides exciting insights into the technology and construction of a bunker, but also into the social fears and political circumstances of the 1960s. Let us take you back to an era when the Cold War kept the world on tenterhooks - and discover how North Rhine-Westphalia prepared for the fall of the Falls.
