An army bunker from the 1900s, which is up for sale for less than $70,000, became the subject of Reddit conversations for its location in the “world’s largest doomsday bunker community.”
Nestled in the Black Hills mountain range in South Dakota, the bunker is located in not just any average neighborhood. It is one of about 575 similar bunkers dotting several acres of land that used to be the host to an army base.
The location used to be a maintenance facility where the army housed munitions and stored and tested bombs. The land was also home to around 575 weapons storage spaces, which were gigantic concrete and steel structures built during the Second World War. These spaces were specifically designed to survive explosions of up to half a megaton.
