Bunker near Shëngjin

This bunker is part of Albania's vast network of Cold War-era fortifications built under the Hoxhaist regime. Located near the coastal town of Shëngjin, it represents the extensive 'bunkerization' program that saw the construction of hundreds of thousands of concrete bunkers across Albania from the 1960s to the 1980s. These fortifications were designed to defend against potential foreign invasion during Albania's period of extreme isolation.
