Polish heavy combat bunker with the original number 39 located in the park. "Mieszkańców Heiloo" in Świętochłowice was built as part of the 2nd Defense Line of the Fortified Area "Śląsk" in 1937. It is one of the few facilities in Silesia intended for leading fire, the so-called "blockhouse". The shelter was built partly in the "E" resistance class, as the walls exposed to fire are 2.00 meters thick.

There are 13 rooms in the bunker and all of them, excluding the heavy machine gun combat chambers and the emergency room of the crew, were separated by an armored, gas-tight partition door. The facility has 3 shooting ranges for heavy machine guns.

Free visiting is possible in the period May-September every 1st and 3rd Saturday and Sunday of the month from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
