B-Dump
Schmiedebach
the bunker under the B-Dump...
|
Directly
near the former V-2 tube test plant Laura near Schmiedebach, there are
several slate dumps which belong to the mine Laura and are named with
capital letters. An eyewitness reported, that the SS had built an
artificial concret bunker under the B-dump in which one could drive in
with a truck. At end of war, it was observed how several trucks
disappeared in the bunker. A short time later, a wild shooting
happened between two SS-groups. After this, the entrance to the bunker
was blasted.
Today,
there are only two or three people in Lehesten who know about the
story of the bunker. One says that this slate dump was called BSCH for
B-dump Schmiedbach in the population, which fits to the mysterious
radio message about the hiding of the Amber Room.#
The
mentioned three people have been all asked about the story with
matching results leading to the conclusion, that the bunker in the
slate dump really exists. However, since further prove is available,
it is very hard to locate the former entrance. Modern technique would
be needed. The way leading from the camp "Laura" to the B-dump can
still be recognized. If one follows the way to the dump, one comes to
something like a platform, where we assume the former entrance to the
bunker. Indeed, there are indications of the existance of a former
entrance. It would be easy to reopen the entrance in only one day
using a caterpillar.
The final
evidence for the existence of this bunker is not found, but if someone
would just invest a day of work and a caterpillar, the big mystery of
the legendary Amber Room could be solved...
