The tunnel leads to Morshty-era cellars, which served as warehouses where messengers delivered military intelligence reports to commanding generals during the interwar period.
A secret underground passage was found under the ruins of the Saxon Palace in Warsaw. It was found during the archaeological excavations of the ruins of the Saxon palace at a depth of about four meters below the surface of the earth, writes Arkeonews.
It was already known that the tunnel had a historical purpose – it facilitated the rapid transmission of important reports and information to the headquarters of the Polish army.
In addition, there is military intelligence in the tunnel. It is located in its southern wing.
“The tunnel also served technical functions. It housed a telegraph cable and a system of heating and irrigation pipes on both sides of the palace,” said palace spokesman Slawomir Kulinski.
He added that the underground passage was built in the 1930s specifically for the needs of military intelligence and reaches a length of about 45 meters.
“The brick used to build the tunnel is marked by the Wawrzynski Brickworks. Also, the date “1933” is scratched into the fresh plaster by an unknown builder, as well as an eagle without a crown. Obviously, we are dealing with an eagle of militant legions in the 1930s,” Kulinsky added.
We remind you that Colombia has previously opened the longest tunnel in South America.
