During the Second World War, the Elisenfels pressing plant had to discontinue the production of Bakelite control panels, switch housings and boxes in favor of the manufacture of detonators for anti-aircraft grenades. The black powder required for this was stored in the bunkers south of the Röslau. This was extremely dangerous.

The old bunkers belong to the Bakelite company in Elisenfels. The Bakelite company was converted into an ammunition factory during World War II.

Mysterious and dark at the same time, I personally advise against getting in
