Falkenhagen Bunker The Falkenhagen Bunker is an abandoned semi - submerged and bunker - level military industrial complex , just north of the town of Falkenhagen in the district Märkisch - Oderland , in Brandenburg , Germany . Designed originally by Nazi Germany for the production of N - stoff ( chlorine trifluoride ) . Never reaching its potential before being over run by the Soviet Army in 1945 , the site was eventually reconstructed by the Warsaw Pact to become its main command and control bunker outside the Soviet Union . Nazi Germany : 1938 – 1945 . Under the code name N - stoff ( " substance N " ) , chlorine trifluoride was investigated for military applications by the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute in Nazi Germany from slightly before the start of World War II . Tests were made against mock - ups of the Maginot Line fortifications , and it was found to be an effective combined incendiary weapon and poison gas . From 1938 construction commenced on a partly bunkered , partly subterranean 14 , 000 m² munitions factory at Falkenhagen , which was intended to produce 50 tonnes of N - stoff per month , plus Sarin . However , by the time it was captured by the advancing Red Army in 1944 , the factory had produced only about 30 to 50 tonnes , at a cost of over 100 German Reichsmark per kilogram . N - stoff was never used in war . Soviet Army : 1945 – 1993 . After the end of World War 2 , and with the Soviets aware of the US Army nuclear and chemical capability , the fate of Falkenhagen complex was secured as a research facility . Little is known of what exact research was undertaken , but the complex was operational as a Soviet Army facility throughout the 1950s . In 1965 , the warsaw Pact countries established a main command post at Falkenhagen . The bunkers were extended and refurbished , and complex communications technology installed , creating a state - of - the - art nuclear and chemical warfare proof underground bunker with supporting facilities . From intelligence created by the Western allies , the complex was seen as the main bunker of the Warsaw Pact outside of the Soviet Union . Developed over the years , the once sparse industrial complex gained a Soviet military village , containing a theatre , shops , a school , housing and medical facilities . Abandonment : 1993 - present . When East Germany reunified in 1989 – 90 , the Soviets agreed to hand back their bases to the unified German authorities by 1994 . They spent the next three years stripping the Falkenhagen Bunker of all signs of military occupation , leaving only the hardened concrete subterranean structures when they left the complex in 1993 .

Bombing of Stuttgart in World War II The bombing of Stuttgart in World War II was a series of 53 air raids that formed part of the strategic air offensive of the Allies against Germany . The first bombing ( by 20 aircraft of the Royal Air Force ) occurred on August 25 , 1940 and resulted in the destruction of 17 buildings . The city was repeatedly attacked over the next four and one - half years by both the RAF and the 8th Air Force as it had a significant industrial infrastructure ( including the Daimler and Porsche automotive factories ) and several military bases , and was also a center of rail transportation in southwestern Germany .

This raid was followed by one against eastern Stuttgart by 393 aircraft on April 15 , 1943 . A well - known raid was on September 6 , 1943 . 338 American heavy bombers took off but only about 150 reached and attacked the city .

Subsequent raids consisted of less than 50 aircraft . Despite the damage wrought in Stuttgart by the attacks , the RAF concluded that its attacks against Stuttgart were not as effective as they could have been : Air defenses . By 1944 , Stuttgart was defended by 11 heavy ( 88 mm ) and 38 light ( 20 mm to 40 mm ) anti - aircraft gun batteries . There was also a Luftwaffe fighter base south of the city at Echterdingen .

Takoba Takoba ( also " takuba " or " takouba " ) is the sword that is used across the western Sahel and among ethnic groups such as the Tuareg , the Hausa , the Fulani . It usually measures about one meter in length . Takoba blades are straight and double edged with a pronounced tapering towards the tip ; they can exhibit several notable features , including three or more hand - ground fuller grooves and a rounded point . Traditionally a Tuareg weapon , it is also used among other peoples Hausa and the Fulani . Takoba were also commonly manufactured in Hausa city states such as Kano . Since the Tuareg have an aversion to touching iron , the takoba ' s hilt , like many iron implements , is fully covered . Typically the simple but deep crossguard is of iron sheet , or iron - framed wood , covered in tooled leather , occasionally it is sheathed in brass or silver ; the grip is also often leather - covered but the pommel is always of metal , often , brass or copper , sometimes iron or silver . Alternatively the whole hilt can be covered in brass or silver sheathing . The scabbard is made of elaborately - tooled leather . Geographical variations in the form of the hilt have been noted , but no rigorous typology has been established . Variations in the quality of blade and fittings on takobas probably mostly reflect the wealth of their owners . There is much debate about whether the takoba was used only by the " imúšaɣ " or warrior class or whether it could be borne by vassals . As with most crafted items used by the Tuareg , takoba are crafted by the " ìnhædʻæn " ( singular " énhædʻ " ) caste , who are of a different ethnicity from the " imúšaɣ " and speak " Ténet " , a secret language . The " imúšaɣ " believe that the " ìnhædʻæn " have magical powers , which some theorize to be associated with their traditional roles as metalworkers and to the " imúšaɣ " aversion to both metalworking and touching iron .
