The Bundesbank bunker in Cochem was a carefully guarded and camouflaged secret of the FRG for decades. During the Cold War, 15 billion Deutschmarks were stored here on around 1,500 square metres as secret emergency currency for emergencies. Since 2016, the former nuclear defence bunker has been an exciting museum of German history during the Cold War, run by Reuter & Reuter GbR. Since January 2022, the Bundesbank bunker in Cochem has complemented the fascinating fortress world of the European cultural route FORTE CULTURA.
