The museum is an underground bunker area of over 7,000 sq.m. at a depth of 60 meters, near the metro station Taganskaya.
The museum has been operating since 2006, after Bunker-42 was purchased from the Federal Property Agency to auction a private company "Novik-Service." At various times, the bunker denotes the index: Object-02 (1947), the FS-293 (1951), the FS-572 (1953), GO-42 (from the 1980s).
Construction of the facility began in 1951 due to the threat of nuclear war with the United States. The underground complex was built the same technique that was used in the construction of the metro. Tunnels complex associated with the Moscow metro - station Taganskaya ring metro line two salable. The first was used to supply the object and leads to the tunnel between the metro stations "Kurskaya" and "Taganskaya", the second leads directly to the station "Taganskaya" ring in the technical premises.
In 1956, a total area of over 7,000 sq.m. It was adopted by the State Commission and submitted to the Ministry of Defence. The object functioned as an alternate command post Staff distant aircraft. 24 hours on the subject is a change of technical staff and military personnel, which is maintaining an communication equipment and life support systems. In the case of alarm, the exercise, the object descended four shifts, which could carry combat duty and to ensure the work of staff of long-range aviation. According to the memoirs of veterans, in addition to long-range aviation Staff working in the bunker are many other institutions, the central telegraph office, a radio, a geodesic laboratory, etc.
In the 1960s, PCP "Tagansky" was fully equipped with everything you need in the event of a nuclear attack. Stocks of food, fuel, regeneration system and air purification, two artesian wells with drinking water, could provide combat duty personnel for a long period of time.
In the mid seventies, due to the accumulated technical problems (lack of waterproofing, non-automatic actuators germodverey, moral and physical obsolescence of diesel generators and ventilation systems), it was decided to reconstruct the object. The command post was supposed to be converted for the needs of Central Telegraph, however, the friction between the Soviet Union and the West have much sleep, and in 1995 the facility was fully declassified.
In 2006, the GSB "Tagansky" was put up for public auction and purchased by a private company, "Novik-Service" for 651,000 rubles. Then work began on the restoration of the object. From former secret project remained only massive steel doors and steel cladding.
The main element of the exhibition is itself an underground bunker, the architecture of its corridors and rooms. The building exterior hides the concrete dome of 6 meters in thickness. On the surface of the object leads to a vertical shaft with an elevator and a staircase to a depth of 60 meters (-18 floor, 310 steps). The hopper consists of four blocks, tunnels with a total area of over 7,000 square meters, connected by transitions. The museum arranged a cinema, a copy of the central command center, exhibition hall, dining room, entertainment area, as well as rooms with engineering systems.
The exposition hall represented the Soviet station half a century ago, chemical protective suits, masks, a Geiger counter, the Soviet agitplakaty. Each visitor gets a bright red badge of the Soviet Ministry of Defense with your name and photo of the unknown in the mask.
"Grief shot" - half hours tour of the former antinuclear bunker GSB "Tagansky". It includes a documentary movie about the history of the nuclear confrontation between the USSR and the USA, as well as the simulation of the explosion of a nuclear bomb.
"Extreme" - a tour of the premises with engineering systems bunker.
The museum also hosts recreational games, airsoft, it is possible to carry out PR-events, receptions and presentations.
In some places, the bunker is clearly audible rumble of passing trains of the Moscow metro - it is on par with the occurrence of the Ring subway line, the first visitors can even take pictures Passing trains, but then the subway tunnel was enclosed screen.
