Built during the Nazi occupation, the 10-Z Bunker in Brno, Czech Republic, initially served as an air-raid shelter to protect against US and Soviet bombardment. Later, it was converted into a Cold War nuclear shelter designed for the city’s elite, making it the most highly classified shelter in Brno. Capable of housing up to 500 people for three days, the bunker now functions as a tourist attraction and cultural space, offering visitors a glimpse into its historical significance and the tense atmosphere of the Cold War era.
