About the Object
The route offers 2,5-3 hour walk along the underground corridors of the bunker of 1930-ies, through the tangled labyrinth of passages, where one can feel what Theseus could have felt in the Minotaur’s Labyrinth.
The museum is an affiliate and addition to the monument “Catacombs of Moldavanka District”. Here you can see real caves higher that human height and hear many stories about this unique underground world. In addition, you can take part in real archeological excavations and of course find out about past and present explorations of the catacombs in Odessa. Probably you could even pass a test in underground orienting.

Interesting place and very informative excursions. The local guide Andrey is perfect! They propose to taste local vodka and tea with cookies.- Tells you all about how big the catacombs are, and how scary and non-heroic life there was for partisans, thieves, and contraband smugglers, etc.
- Wow this is just an amazing tour. They take you down some amazing routes and see both communist era and older parts of the tunnels. We had to bring a translator with us but for us this wasn't an issue. Would recommend this to anyone in the city.
