Hohlgang (tunneled complexes) types

#1

Post by kkirimis1975 » 19 Oct 2020, 16:03

I would like to ask if Hohlgang bunkers (tunneled complexes) were built using strict plans (like Regelbaus) or if it was freely up to the constructor, to use his own style ?

I'm also attaching some plans from Hohlgangs in Attica, Greece.

Maybe someone can identify similarities with other sites, in other countries.

Thanks for your great input

There were central plans for tunneled complexes, but most were local plans .
Here some examples of Hohlgang, a living-bunker and a command post .
