Savoy Family WWII Air-Raid Shelter

A WWII-era air-raid shelter constructed between November 1940 and June 1943 to protect Italy's former royal family, the Savoia, from potential bombing during the war. Located in Villa Ada park in Rome, this underground bunker spans over 200 square meters and features a circular design with seven rooms including two main chambers, two bathrooms, an antechamber, and two service rooms. The structure represents a significant piece of Italian military architecture from the fascist period, built under Benito Mussolini's regime to ensure the royal family's safety during air raids.
