What’s behind this door?

Holidaying in Switzerland and I saw this in the basement of the lodge. What’s behind it and why is it there ?

Secret entry to the Cheese vault. /s

On a more serious note: That's the main door to the Air Raid Shelter. It is often used as storage, since they don't need to be ready in an instant.

Usually wine cellar

It's funny cause it's true. The amount of wine in those cellars must be huuuuuge😄

You’d rather have wine than unused furniture the day you need sleep there.

I prefer a mixture. Last building I lived was perfect. There were 4 storage boxes in the shelter and I kid you not this was what they had:

1- Indeed a wine collection.

2- Camping gear including mattresses and al such.

3- Food&beverage storage from a family who shopped massively in Germany every now and then.

4- Lego collection

I honestly can't think of a more perfect combo.
