This is one of the alernate command posts of the Warsaw Pact contries located on the territory of Moldavia. There are similar constructions in Belorus, Ukraine, Russia, Azerbaijan.
Object 1180 represents two cylindrical blocks each 36 m in diameter and 60 m deep divided into 10-12 levels. There is an additional level used as a fridge centre.
The bunker was not finished and finally was abandoned, but the structure is so colossal that is truly worth visiting.
It’s hard to imagine how deep everything is buried here.
Both blocks of the bunker are interconnected by a communication postern. Hundreds of pipes and cables stretch through it and support the command post.
Entrance to the postern from the upper level of the bunker.
It’s easy to get into the command post through the upper level.
But in darkness one should be careful!
Looters have taken many things away.
The staircase between the levels of the command block have also suffered looting.
Ice is still floating there
It would be nice for Indiana Jones movies…
Typical storey of the command block has two big rooms and a corridor between them. The rooms are 4-5 m high. The walls are made of steel.
Quite surreal
The next block, its bunker has been preserved better. There are few unfinished structures and cooling installations there.
Postern exits and entrances
Inside
Lower than the sixth level the bunker is flooded, at the water surface is the ice layer 40 cm thick.
Exit to the communication postern between the blocks, its length is 20 meters. It’s fully from metal.

There are many operating bunkers new ones built in the ural mountain complex.
One would think someone would get tetanus or some other contagion from water or metal workings.
If you fall in there who would know.
Mercal
Perfect scenery for the B-class horror movies
Someone should give the chick a tip about footwear for use in such places..
Also made for nothing i c.
What do u guys think all that material costs now-a-days!!??
Not to mention all the labour force used for it!!
Which is why they/we went broke.
America is next, welcome to hell.
I’m just waiting for “S.T.A.L.K.E.R” the TV-series (yes, I’m a dreamer). This kinda place would be enough for one or two full episodes

Good Lord!!!
I never thought anyone would have the balls to actually do it. Thanks D!
yeeah,Spectacular Pictures!!!
I really like this location!
where is this ?
Ouch
Nice to see people hurting themselves in the pursuit of fun and exploration. It’s how life should be.
Hi, does anyone know where exactly is this place? I am going to be in Moldova next week and wants to visit this place.
so each bunker would account for 61,000 cubic meters of material removed. where did it go?
I saw this in “The Hills have eyes”
Someone knows what kind of disease can you get from that yellow water?
You are young talented people it would be so stupid of you if you hurt yourself more seriously – please be more careful use a helmet and some proper boots – sorry for the rant but being a father I can’t stand putting life at risk.
So “The Cube” really existed…

What a waste of money and how dangerous to just leave it like that – people could die exploring as I bet cell phones don’t work and it is no doubt in the middle of nowhere!
