Museum dedicated to the Communist dictatorship in former underground shelters built to house the city's apparatchiks.

Un guide est obligatoire, le notre était très enthousiaste en anglais et ne racontait pas les histoires auxquelles l'avis du Petit Futé fait allusion. Petite scène de comédie pendant la visite quand des scouts se perdaient dans des tunnels fermés au public...
