Bunker near Durrës

This bunker is part of Albania's extensive Cold War-era bunker network, known as the 'bunkerisation' project implemented under communist leader Enver Hoxha. Constructed between 1967 and 1986, these fortifications were built throughout the country as a defensive measure against potential foreign invasion. The bunker near Durrës represents the widespread distribution of these structures, which were placed in every conceivable location from beaches to urban streets, cemeteries, and rural areas.
