Underground Factory "Stör 2"

Beneath the Kaiser Wilhelm 1 monument was the U-Verlagering ‘Stör 2’. These underground production halls (four floors) were commissioned in 1944. Among other things, ball bearings were manufactured there.

After the war, after earlier demolition work, the entrances were completely sealed off by British commandos by means of explosions. In these explosions (already reduced to the minimum), the monument's forecourt was partially damaged beyond repair. The current forecourt is therefore smaller than in the past.
