Andre is in town for his concert, last 3 days. We were here in 2019 to see him. It was a great concert.




Or you can have dinner and watch the concert on various TV around different restaurants.


All the buses that have driven some of the audience into town, the buses are 4 deep.

This is the area where the buses were last night, market by day, bus park by night. They were starting to pack up around 3:00pm

Toured an old air raid shelter.

Sitting in one of the many tunnels

Messages scratched into the sandstone walls


Men's and Ladies Toilets, there where plastic shower curtain used for privacy. In the shelter with a capacity of two hundred people, eight toilet boxes were placed in the tunnels. Chemical toilet bowls could be placed in the toilets



Drinking Water supply, because the drinking water on the outside could become contaminated, a water reservoir was setup in each air-raid shelter. As long as the water pipe was still intake, it was safe to use the water.

Air Raid siren
1 - Ventilation - fresh air was only allowed in by a controlled manner. That air was sucked in by four ventilation motors and blown through the tubes that run along the vault.

2 - Carbon monoxide alarm - each shelter was provided with a measuring box to measure the amount of the toxic carbon monoxide in the living space. When the alarm went off, more fresh air had to be pumped in through the ventilation system.
