REGAN VEST
In the 1960s, the bunker was secretly built 60 meters underground inside a chalk hill and hidden behind a yellow brick villa. The bunker is nuclear-proof and well-concealed in Rold Forest, strategically located far away from cities and densely populated areas. The bunker's circular underground passages, covering an impressive area of 5,500 square meters, can accommodate 350 people.
It wasn't until 2012 that the bunker was taken out of service, and until then, its existence was actually a well-preserved secret, known only to a select few. In 2014, the facility was listed as a protected site, and efforts began to open this impressive cultural heritage to the public—now widely recognized as the Cold War Museum REGAN Vest.
