The impressive underground tunnels of the Mittelbau-Dora complex, where prisoners were forced to produce V-2 rockets under inhumane conditions. These tunnels, carved into the mountain, extend for kilometers and represent one of the largest underground production facilities of World War II. Modern lighting now allows visitors to explore these places of suffering.
