Underground Tunnels – Tezno Zone

Explore the underground tunnels that will take you through history

• 90 steps down

• 15 meters below the surface

• 8,512 m² of underground tunnels

• Countless undiscovered corners and secrets

With a safety helmet on your head, a flashlight in your hand, and waterproof footwear, join us in the underground world where a constant temperature of 12 °C has preserved secrets from the time of the Second World War—when, for fear of bombing, German aircraft-engine production moved below ground. The tunnels are damp, there are occasional holes underfoot, your gaze strays into unlit passageways and onto walls covered with sketches and inscriptions.

On a guided tour lasting a good hour, you will:

• see a short photo exhibition about the creation of the tunnels,

• learn about the history of the aircraft-parts factory and the production tunnels through storytelling,

• experience the TAM factory and the Tezno Business & Production Zone.

Equipment
We will equip you with helmets and flashlights. Don’t forget suitable waterproof footwear (ankle boots or higher hiking boots) and appropriate clothing. You’ll also need to descend 90 steps to reach 15 m below the surface.

Location
The meeting point is by Perhavčeva Street. Drive straight through the only traffic lights in the Tezno Zone; after the first hall on the left, turn left into the yard (in front of the company Messer). This applies if you enter the Tezno Zone from Ptujska Road, where you turn into the zone at the intersection between Hofer and Lidl. You can park behind the boiler house—turn left at the traffic lights—where there is a larger car park on the left.
