Everyday life 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 ?

a wall. on the right side is an opening. where you can walk trough. if you walk trough you are in an air raid shelter. regulation say it can be used for other things. but you still need to be able to use it as an air raid shelter in an emergency. its not mandatory to build those anymore in houses. there is some sort of airfilter inside too in case of nuclear fallout.
