The former air-raid shelter was built in 1943/44. The almost 60 meter long facility was intended to protect the north houses from flying bomb splinters, 150 - 200 people could be accommodated, there were two real toilets connected to the sewage system and 3 chimneys for heating. The 40 centimeter thick concrete walls and a 20 centimeter thick reinforced concrete ceiling are covered by up to one meter of soil. For more than 70 years the entrance was opposite the restaurant "Zum Socks"
