Only 10 minutes from the hotel ARCOTEL Rubin exists the only underground bunker museum in Northern Germany . The bunker was built in 1941-1944 during the Second World War. The total area of ​​2,700 m² is spread over 3 floors and was designed to protect up to 2,460 people . Few Hamburg bunkers could accommodate so many people at once. After the war, the underground bunker at first fell into a deep sleep. In 1965, during the " Cold War" , the capacity of the bunker was increased in order to protect 2,702 people.
