Immerse yourself in the dark world of the Second World War and feel the oppressive atmosphere of the long corridors and abandoned cells. Be impressed by one of the largest exhibitions on German civilian air raid protection during the Second World War.
Discover the originally furnished luxury bunker, which has been reconstructed down to the last detail and is the only one of its kind in Germany; the interactive exhibition allows visitors to experience the lives of those seeking shelter and hands-on exhibits bring history to life.
Original film footage
In addition, original film footage of the bombing raids on Hagen and the air raid protection of the time offer unseen insights into the darkest chapter of German history. A unique experience: the simulation of air raid alarms as they were during the Second World War.
Toy exhibition
The world's largest exhibition of toys from the Third Reich, entitled "Hitler's Invasion of the Children's Room", shows the perfidious infiltration of an entire generation of children, from very young children onwards, who grew up with heroism, soldiering, war and political Nazi infiltration.
In addition to the wartime period, the private museum also shows the use of the bunker in the post-war period and takes visitors back to the occupation period and the economic miracle era with its legendary jazz club.
Art exhibition
The bunker also houses the estates of Hagen artists, which are archived by the Hagen Heimatbund and shown in changing exhibitions.
