Abandoned Underground Factories of the Second World War

Abandoned Underground Factories of the Second World War

 

Many German World War II factory built in underground. Around 1000 factorys has Hitler planed. In 1944 the Third Reich began work on the construction of a partially underground bunker with many factorycodenames. In these abandoned underground factory complexes of World War Two killed many peoples. A number of abandoned underground factories of World War Two are still crumbling to dust some over 70 years later, reminders of one of the darkest chapters in modern human history. During the Second World War, the factories under the control of Nazis became targets for air raids of the Allies and the imperial authorities were forced to move the productions underground. Underground factories consisted of efficiently connected production halls with assembly lines operated mainly by prisoners from concentration camps.
