The bunker at Weidendamm in the northern part of Hanover was built during World War II. The bunker served as a shelter from aerial bombs dropped by Allied planes during air raids on the city. The 25 meter high, tower-like round bunker was completed in 1941 and offered those seeking protection behind a wall thickness of 2.5 meters space on 7 levels.

The air raid shelter is on Kopernikusstraße.
The striking building is one of the few buildings in this area that have survived the war.
