“Stalin’s Bunker” and Metro-2

The creation of this object started in 1930s, and it was meant to be used by Stalin as an underground building for the military functions during the WWII, called “The Stalin’s Unit”. The interior included: The session Hall of the Supreme command chief of the Red Army; Stalin's work cabinet; Stalin's rest room; Dining room; Generals room (High command room). The object was the part of the second subway – the famous Metro-2. It’s connected with the city center (The Kremlin) with 17 kilometers of the underground road. The entrances and exits were located far away from the Bunker. To mask the object it was decided to build a Sport complex on the surface, but it 1939 the works were stopped leaving the sport complex unfinished. The bunker occupies the territory of 100000 square km of the underground areas. During the War there were about 2000 people living underground. But the bunker had never been used for the military reasons.
