Thank you and EE so much for this opportunity to see something not many people would get the chance to. Take care and keep smiling my friends.

The reason for these empty 'halls' is that they were a part of the protection. If you leave empty cavities in the roof, bombs will explode partly in empty air and release the pressure. It's cheaper to make than having a solid concrete.

HH, please pass on to your friend how grateful we all are, for guiding you guys through this amazing structure, and allowing us all the privilege to see what very few have ever seen. And most especially to see such rare sights, as the corner guard position, and the whole sub pen from the bottom, the top, and, the dry dock gate. I doubt very few have ever seen it all like this, and very, very, few have ever seen the guard post , or been able to play with the shutters! Thank you both for taking the time, and effort, to share this incredible location with us. Hoepfully, the developers nver get their way, and this structure remains as it it, so be seen by many future History Hunters for a long time yet. Cheers to you both!

Until 1995, a submarine bunker in Hamburg's Vulkanhafen harbour still housed three submarines. They were largely cannibalised by the British and then the bunker was to be blown up. However, this did not work out as planned. The structure was too massive. Sand was then filled in in 1995. At the beginning of the 2000s, the remains were blown up again with moderate success and then further demolished. Today, the entire volcanic harbour has been filled in and a car park has been built on the buried bunker remains along with the submarines.

Hitler built this for his thousand years Reich. He meant for it to last. Even with the workers working fast to finish it, it is still standing. It’s a testament to the impressive work of people of this time. I wonder if the square cutouts in the walls were attachment point for equipment to build this huge structure? I do hope developers don’t get their way and try to destroy this historical site. Thanks to your friend for allowing you to share this amazing site.

My father was a merchant marine Ship Captain. The U Boats never hit his ship when on convoy. He wanted to be a fighter pilot but he was stuck being a Captain on a ship. Later he got a new ship and spent the rest of the war in the Pacific.I spent my life at sea never wanted to do anything else. Seeing your shows are great I enjoy them all. When I was young I spent months at Dutchharbor it was in 1960 the Navy left everything when they left after the war. I remember the submarine base there I would explore all of the old military positions on the Island. It was still mined in some places so you had to stay out. When I was fishing and doing salvage work I worked with men that were in the German military as well as for the allies. Everyone got along well they were part of history and it was a privilege to know them all.

It wasn't until you and EE went down the stairs to the bottom of the pen that I really got a sense of the size of this place. Amazing that you received permission to tour the place and were able to document it!!! That gate folds!!! Crazy!! Pics of the U-Boats in the place was great to see. Top corner visitor and the shutter moved!! Awesome! What a huge area for storage and workshops! Soldier footprints in the concrete from the construction who probably were watching over the workers as they put n the concrete, set forever for us to see! Great stuff!!

Thank your friend for allowing us to experience that humongous German WW2 Feistel defensive location. That is beyond insane. Can't even imagine the time spent designing and constructing those intricate concrete structures. Yes, just imagine what they would have looked like back in the day. Thanks for the photos so we can envision. Those steel iron boot imprints were something to see. Definitely, looked like they were in a hurry to complete. You could go on and on in that one building. Brings back memories for you HH having been a sub sonar operator. Another dream came true for EE. How exciting is that. Thank you HH and EE. Stay safe. 💕

Those square cutouts that were visible on the exterior of the structure run the span of the building. Their intention is to absorb shockwaves caused by bombing raids. The shockwaves caused by ordinance detonating on top of or above a building that travel through the structure usually cause more damage to the integrity of the structure than the intial explosion itself. These open chambers suppressed shockwaves and substantially lessened them as they traveled down through the structure. The Germans were among the first to implement this system of safe guards into their construction, which is the main reason aerial bombing runs were unsuccessful against these sub pens. The allies made attemps to use "skipping" torpedoes to target these pens, but even those were marginally unsuccessful as well. It is truly an amazing video, and i really appreciate you sharing it with us! Thank you for all your hard work. Greetings from the USA!

You immersed us in the history of the Battle of the Atlantic, which is truly mind blowing to see. My dad was on both merchant ships and in the Royal Navy during that time, so there is a connection here. I'm blown away by the size and extent of those buildings. And the mechanics of filling and evacuating those docks is also fascinating. Thanks to you, EE and your mate for bringing that to us!

I can see why the video was so long with all that there was to cover there. Definitely a fun one to watch. So sad that it can possibly be gone in a decade due to development! P.S. Don't blame you for wanting to take the Kriegsmarine U-boat sailor's uniform item to the grave. What a great thing to have and how wonderful it was for that family to give it to you.

Hello to the History Hunting Crew.. Thank you for bringing us something new. It is an amazing U base. It is asinine how large this places foot print has to be. Thanks again for the amazing views and peek at history. You would think a facilities that size would be used completely for something today. Take care and stay safe!

Such a fantastic explore and a great follow up to a previous video to actually have a friend to let you come inside and make it come full circle ! And fulfill your dream of seeing the inside of the guard tower section too ! Because of your past service as a submariner to show your son about this must be really exciting to share with him . I also found these before as well . I wonder if on your "Off time" you and EE went Bowling and had some fun too lol . Love it , and hope all is well my friends !

I always enjoy your videos. It's so encouraging to see how EE is growing and learning at your side. I can agree that the Germans had brilliant engineers, and often good designs. But as a U.S. citizen of 72 years, my Father fought in WWII against the Axis powers. Please keep in mind that many of us have family members that were wounded or died in the conflict. My Uncle Corwin was shot down and killed in a bombing run over Germany. When I think of the enslavement of thousands and thousands of workers, the many death camps & the Holocaust; I just can't be so enthusiastic at what they built. But I always learn from your videos, and I appreciate that.

Even better, make it into a museum. If there was a submarine of that time period to have placed in it along with other articles of the submarine warfare. Now, that would be something to see.

Guard corner was pretty basic but effective for MG34 and MG42's I was hoping you would go up there and you did, it takes a curious man to investigate what's behind a wall or door. In some ways the U Bunker is like a Veste with openings for shooting arrows from many angles. The war was a proving ground for German ingenuity.

The system used is similar to the Pedestrian Underpass that are under Railway Stations for getting the water out when it gets flooded. The floor is slopped to the center where there is a deep pit with what's called a submersible pump that when turned on, pumps the water out into the gutter on the street above.
