France - Verdun Underground Citadel - 1 |
|
|
 |
The
Verdun Underground Citadel featured 400-metre long parallel
galleries, linked by four perpendicular galleries, and could
hold up to 2,000 men. During World War I it was used as a
shelter (mess, baker, hospital etc.). Some members of the local
council also exercised their functions from within the citadel.
Due to a late arrival at the museum we were not able to cover
all of the museum, so the pictures below are not fully
representative for the museum.
