MY HOLIDAY in MY COUNTRY - POLAND

Bunkers in Mamerki

 

One of the best preserved complexes of undamaged German bunkers from World War II in Poland. In the years 1940-1944 about 250 objects including 30 concrete shelters were built for the needs of the 40 top generals and field marshals, 1500 officers and soldiers of the Wehrmacht, and most of them have survived to our times undamaged. Germans did not manage to blow up the shelters, they were abandoned without a fight by the Wehrmacht troops in January 1945.
Essential orders for the troops of the Wehrmacht were transmitted through this place during World War II. For 4 years, there were attempts made to defeat the Soviet Union. It is here, where conspiracy against A. Hitler took place when Germany had begun to lose the war. It is the place, where the order to suppress the Warsaw Uprising was sent from. In addition, visitors can walk along 30m underground tunnel connecting two shelters.

















In 2016-2017, the Amber Room was sought in Mamerki. Global and nationwide media carried out rerelations live from search. Mamerki became famous.
From May 2018 in Mamerki, you can visit a replica of the Amber Room room – 60 m2 of exhibition. Replica was made with great accuracy by a renowned art studio specializing in the reconstruction of the missing world art works.
15,000,000 Poles learned about Mamerki and followed the search for Amber Room in 2016.

 From the top of 36 meter- high tower visitors admire the view on Mamry Lake and the surroundings, it is the highest tower in the region. Unfortunately all tower was in the wind and it was so difficult to take any photos
