There are many legends about the bunker of Stalin, and almost all of them are related to the fact that information about this defensive structure for many years was classified. The bunker was created as the reserve location of the rate of the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of the USSR, Joseph Stalin. Samara (at the time - Kuibyshev) in the event of the capture of Moscow during the Great Patriotic War was to become a reserve capital.
Metrostroevtsy from Moscow and Kharkov, as well as miners from Donbass, arrived specially for the erection of the object in Samara. In total, 3,700 people worked on the creation of the Stalin bunker.
The Stalin bunker was built in complete secrecy regime from February to October 1942. Especially for the erection of the object in the city metro workers from Moscow and Kharkov, as well as miners from Donbass, arrived. In total, 3700 people worked on the creation of the bunker. Each of them gave a subscription on the non-disclosure of state secrets. That's why even the inhabitants of Samara did not know what was being built behind a high fence
The workers practically did not go beyond the fenced territory - here they ate in the dining room and spent the night. The construction was going on around the clock, and the ground was removed only at night to avoid suspicion.
The Stalin bunker is at a depth of 37 meters. This is one of the largest structures of this type all over the world. For example, Hitler's bunker has a depth of 16 meters. The asylums of Churchill and Roosevelt go underground only on two floors
Information about the Samara bunker was declassified only in 1990. Today in the bunker of Stalin there is an exposition telling visitors about the Great Patriotic War. It is a refuge under the modern building of the Academy of Culture and Arts

TOURIST 163
was here in February 2006
Visited the museum "Josef Stalin's Bunker" in Samara about 10 years ago . The impression is colossal: the lower you go, the 6th louder siren . @ The demonstration on the TV screen of the parade in Kuibyshev, the reserve capital of the Soviet Motherland, reinforces the emotional impact . The leader of the leader's desk is stretched on a green cloth . The stenographer's chairs are set so that they are sitting with their backs to the hall (they did not need them to know and see which member of the government is present at the meeting) . The tour guide spoke very harshly about each corner of this unique underground building . Now I want to come again to Samara and get on a tour to the bunker . Youth I advise you to go to the museum on Frunze, 165: our history is worthy of attention and respect .
