This woman was in the news last week after a fantastic discovery she made in her garden. She had bought a house with a vast war bunker in the backyard. It was a giant metal and concrete structure that had been underground for years. And that wasn’t even the strangest thing they discovered because what they found in the bunker was incredible!

The entrance to the bunker was a tunnel that was almost 100 meters long.

The floor in the scullery had sounded hollow for a while, but when they saw this metal hatch under one of the cupboards, they were pretty shocked!

They pushed the cupboard aside and uncovered the maintenance hole cover. She thought it might be a small basement underneath.

She thought it was where the former family had set up a secret wine store.

But the hole went down about 30 meters into the ground. An old, rusty ladder was hanging from the hole’s edge, and it was time to find out what was in the tunnel’s depths.

It was a narrow opening, but her husband Flint could barely fit through it.

A long, straight corridor lay before Flint’s feet, and he could see a light in the distance. 

Flint informed his wife of everything he found via the walkie-talkie, but that wasn’t necessary because she would soon join him and participate in the action.

And then she saw it. A small piece of concrete was sticking out of the lawn right in front of her.

Flint told them there was a large iron door down there but that he couldn’t open it alone. Lindsey and her brother jumped into the hole with him.

They tried to break down the door together. 

They pulled the handle as hard as possible, and the door was ripped open with a loud bang. 

The room was full of old jars and bottles. These bottles must have seen a war. Could this be an old war bunker?

The labels told them that the bottles contained whisky and rum. What surprised her most was the year the drinks had been made: 1945. “These bottles were over 77 years old,” she exclaimed in amazement.

They decided to move on, which was good because many more hidden treasures were waiting for them around the next corner.

The first thing Lindsey, Flint, and her brother found was a large suitcase. 

It was a 1945 report that listed all the submarines in the Allied Navy on labeled paper. They were amazed.

These papers could have changed the outcome of the Second World War.

The troops probably got stuck here during the invasion, and these documents were never seen again. Each room had its own story, which was fascinating.

The subsequent discovery was made about 20 meters away in a new room. Lindsey and her husband will focus on a project based on the things found there.

A closet was still so intact it looked like it could have been used yesterday.

A big part of the bunker was dug up and made like it used to be.

Lindsey and her family still don’t know how the tunnel was uncovered, but they’re excited to share this impressive bunker with the world again!

Lindsey and her family have now moved in. They run the museum in their spare time but can no longer live peacefully in their old location.

Today, the bunker sits proudly above the dunes and is visited by almost 1 million people yearly. Admission is free to make it accessible to as many people as possible.
