The word impregnable is fully justified. These will definitely last for a thousand years. What a brilliant place to live. Imagine having a flak emplacement as a patio! I am so jealous!

It's a pretty impressive tower, I saw it when I was at this Carnival being hosted next too it in 2019. I recognized it straight away when I asked my friends who are locals there if that was what I thought it was. It definitely stands out in comparison to the other buildings that surround it.

Ich habe ende der der 1980er Jahre dort eine Ausbildung zum Fotografen gemacht. Eines Tages kam ein alter Herr ins Studio mit einem Karton voller Fotos und fragte ob wir Duplikate machen können, da er keine Negative mehr hat. Auf den Bildern war er als 15 Jähriger Flakhelfer zu sehen der sich verbotenerweise dort fotografisch betätigte. Es waren Fotos vom ihm und seinem Mitschülern auf dem Dach und den Geschützen sowie das teilweise zerstörte Stadtviertel rundherum zu sehen. Er meinte er hätte zu der Zeit erschossen werden können wegen der verbotenen Fotos. Das war ihm nur damals nicht bewusst gewesen. Er hatte während seiner Dienstzeit zum Glück nur einen Angriff dort oben aushalten müssen. Es waren bewegende Geschichten…

There's a lot of potential in these structures. Imagine building an outdoor bar or a cafe at the top? Maybe add a pool... The building can certainly take the weight, since it probably has tons of poured concrete and steel rebar inside. They could become a nice Hotel if properly rebuilt inside.

Hamburg is a beautiful city. Especially in the summer time.

The 12.8cm Flak 40 guns that sat atop were Colossal Getting them up there must have been a challenge!

Now I've been to the music store in the bunker many times but never on the roof - thanks for the insight - greetings from near Hamburg

Why did this turn into a scary video out of nowhere 😂 I thought it was gonna be one of them peaceful walk through videos 😂

The most impressive for me is, to think about the fact, that Hitler himself walked the stairs in this Bunker. It's all original and a time witness. It really fascinates me.

These things always remind me of the great Crusader castles in Jordan and Syria like Kerak and Crac du Chevalier. They too were built in war and are still there. Ive always wondered why U.S. citizens in Tornado Alley dont build in concrete!
