      "The bastion, which was built in the 16th century for defense purposes and was buried by the Prussians, was not rediscovered until 1944. During the Second World War, the citizens of the city urgently needed a shelter. On their own initiative, the Tecklenburgers began building an air raid shelter. In July In 1944, after a wall breakthrough, a domed building was lifted - The Bastion.
      Today the bastion can be visited from April to September - in the remaining months bats find a protected winter quarters there. "Source: teutoschleifen.de
