Odessa is a city that has always been in the spotlight. Now I want to tell you about the bunker during the Great Patriotic War. This is a unique structure that deserves special attention from historians and residents of the city. It can become another landmark of Odessa.
The location of the bunker and the first assumptions
A secret bunker is located a kilometer from the 411th battery. He himself peacefully stands and waits for guests on the street Dacha Kovalevsky.
Rector of the University. Ushinsky Andrey Kranozhon believes that this concrete bunker was the command post of the 411th coastal defense battery of the 1930s.
It is interesting that in 1941 the troops of the Soviet Army, leaving the city, blew up all the shelters. But this bunker remained intact. He was in the "Petrel".
Now it's worth paying attention to the bunker itself. Rather, on its inner part. The system of spacious rooms has been preserved there. There is a bathroom, toilet, ventilation and access to the lower tier. A partially destroyed shelter was found at the edge of the cliff. These are the remains of a concrete cell. Apparently, the gunner of the very artillery that covered the enemy with a stream of deadly fire was sitting here.
In addition, there is a specially built adit. Through a system of underground passages, it is connected to the 411th battery. This is another confirmation of the version that the command post was located here.
Historians of the city believe that this structure is of great importance for the study of those terrible events. It is necessary not only to preserve it, but also to turn it into a museum. It will be not just a monument to the Great Patriotic War, but also a gorgeous landmark. This bunker will serve as a material reminder of the terrible events that took place on our land from 1941 to 1945.
You need to carefully examine every inch of this bunker. Perhaps there are caches and caches here. They can store important evidence of the first battles for Odessa and the retreat of the Soviet Army.
Thus, another attraction appeared on the territory of Odessa. The bunker was able to withstand the years of the Great Patriotic War. It survived the Soviet Union and did not disappear during the time of Ukraine's independence. Let's hope that he will not become a victim of the new authorities of our country. We must restore the real history of our region bit by bit.
This bunker is considered a magnificent engineering structure, which is an integral part of the underground defenses of pre-war Odessa.
