Product Information

The word “Riese” (prounced “REE-zuh”) means “giant” in German. And this was an ambitious project even by Hitler’s megalomaniacal standards: seven underground structures connected by tunnels totaling over 5.5 miles in length beneath the Owl Mountains of Lower Silesia and the opulent Ksiaz Castle in what was then Germany and is now a territory of Poland.

If the behavior persists, the responsible party will be expelled from the system. As the tide turned against the Nazis in 1943, Hitler and his engineers began building an elaborate underground city joined by tunnels where they would be able to conduct their war plans unimpeded by Allied bombers or encroaching Red Army troops. But were you aware that in the middle of World War II, the Nazis were working on something quite similar? Lindner, Jan-Eric (12 November 2011). "Die mörderische Spur durch ganz Deutschland".

The Fortress of Mimoyecques is the modern name for a Second World War underground military complex built by the forces of Nazi Germany between 1943 and 1944. It was intended to house a battery of V-3 cannons aimed at London, 165 kilometres (103 mi) away. Originally codenamed Wiese (“Meadow”) or Bauvorhaben 711 (“Construction Project 711”), it is located in the commune of Landrethun-le-Nord in the Pas-de-Calais region of northern France, near the hamlet of Mimoyecques about 20 kilometres (12 mi) from Boulogne-sur-Mer. It was constructed by a mostly German workforce recruited from major engineering and mining concerns, augmented by prisoner-of-war slave labour. There are unverified reports that the Nazis were seeking uranium deposits buried deep within the Owl Mountains. When an economic crisis grips an economy, then the parallel economy initially serves as a buffer that lets people continue working without becoming dependent on social welfare," says Dominik Enste, listing one general cause that leads parallel economies to flourish. Enste is a professor of business ethics at the Cologne University of Applied Sciences. In his research, he takes factors into account that go beyond economic fluctuations, such as the qualitative relationship of citizens to their state.In their postwar memoirs, Albert Speer and others insisted that Project Riese was intended to be Adolf Hitler’s spacious underground headquarters and a general hiding space for the Nazi top brass. But other researchers say that the manner in which this information was deliberately spread by notoriously unreliable sources is evidence that this was a purposeful Nazi misinformation campaign designed to deflect attention from Project Riese’s true purpose… …or was it supposed to be a super-huge underground military base for nuclear tests, hypersonic jets, anti-gravity devices, and other “wonder weapons” such as the “Nazi Bell”? Eminger: Guilty – Convicted of aiding a terror organization. Sentenced to two and a half years in prison. Gerlach: Guilty – Also convicted of aiding a terror organization. Sentenced to three years in prison. Others speculate that the Nazis’ various anti-gravity experiments would have been much safer to conduct deep within manmade caves.
