In Europe, there is an incredible system of underground tunnels, and no one knows who built them
European historical zagadka
Under the Europe there are hundreds, perhaps thousands of underground tunnels, the origin of which remains a mystery. This type of tunnel is called «erdstall», and they are very narrow. From 1 to 1 to 2 m in height and 60 cm in width. Also, there are connecting tunnels that even less, and in which are unlikely to pass an adult or a person overweight. Some tunnel systems are rings, the length of most of the tunnels in such systems does not exceed 50 m.
Age tunnels approximately defined as the early Middle Ages. Since the tunnels could not find any historical artifacts, difficult to more precisely determine the age.
For the same reason, it is unlikely that these tunnels have ever been used as hiding places or as a shelter. Although completely exclude this possibility can not be. The most common theory is that it is the construction of religious values, and that they might have belonged to some non-Christian cult. Supplement to the mystery is the fact that these tunnels were never mentioned in historical texts. Perhaps we will never know where they came from.
