PRAGUE, CZECHIA: Visiting the Museum of Communism & a cold war era nuclear blast proof bunker hidden deep underground in the suburbs of the city all prepped & ready for a nuclear strike.

The former Czechoslovakia became a communist country and a satellite state of the Soviet Union in 1948 and endured over 40 years of communist rule. During that time a number of Cold War bunkers were built in preparation for a nuclear attack from the west.
Prague was close to the Iron Curtain so an attack on the city was deemed likely, and so to calm the population the communist authorities built a number of nuclear bunkers as a refuge for civilians if the worst ever happened.
Thankfully they were never needed. These days they are used for alternative purposes – nightclubs, storage units, and museums that serve as a reminder of the communist period here in Czechia.
During my trip to Prague I was able to visit one of these underground nuclear bunkers as part of an organised tour – it was a fascinating experience.
