Ricovero S is a Cold War-era nuclear shelter located in southeastern France. Built during the height of Cold War tensions, this facility was designed to provide protection for key personnel and equipment in the event of a nuclear strike. The shelter's location in the French Alps region reflects the strategic importance of mountainous terrain for defensive installations during this period.
Like many similar structures across Europe, Ricovero S represents France's commitment to maintaining a credible nuclear deterrent and protecting its leadership and critical infrastructure.
