Maybe there was a WWII-era Stalag in the area

sounds like a well...It's length total is only about 125 feet...

I saw something similar many years ago..and my first thought was grain storage which turned out to be correct.

Very interesting. Are they all built into the foot of a hill or a mountain; do they all slope downward to flat land below? I was just reading about qanat irrigation - maybe this is something like that.

These look like adits. Miners drove these drifting tunnels looking for metal ores.

“Initially the tunnel went down vertically for 4 meters, and then it continued in a zigzag pattern. There was a narrow “Schlupf” section at the end of the labyrinth. It reminds the researchers of a vagina.”

Heh.

One gallery contained an iron plowshare, while heavy millstones were found in three others. Virtually nothing else has turned up in the vaults.


We have to remember that these were not common items but were more valuable than anything else they might own. Whether to protect people or wealth, you would only use these in emergency and not tell anyone about it. If it was for a settlement it would be the town secret.

Brewing - actually aging/storing - beer, aging cheeses are among the foremost coming to mind........

But, depending upon their age, these could also have served as refuges from the mongols or other eastern invaders as well. >PS

Whatever they were, they sure are fascinating. If they were for grain what is that purpose? Hiding grain? Storing grain? I don’t understand.

These are bases for UFOs which are actually quite small. Or tunnels made by very large earth worms. Glad I could help.
