Expedition in which the consumers “dive’ into the underground of fortress Petrovaradin. You will hear the hearth beats of those close to you and you will touch the walls of one of the most beautiful master pieces of fortifications.

Ahead of us lie more than 33 kilometers of tunnels, of which only 900 meters are officially explored. A tangle of tunnels is shaped in four levels of defense with more than 8 floors of galleries one beneath the other. If you heard about the stories of dragon who is feasting with curious tourists and treasure hunters, about hidden nazi train, about the tunnel beneath the Danube river, about the tiger, and finally about the forbidden love of Maria Bruckner, and lot more you are at the right place, to explore them with us.

During this workshop you will get a brief course in history of the fortress, about its parts, fortification elements and names, about the counter-mining warfare, levels, floors and levels of defense, secret of numbered plates and military mapping used during the ages, signs and graffities, blind, communication and mine galleries.
Youll get a glimpse of the underground which was prepared for six garrisons of soldiers and youll see the daylight through on of the 1200 embrasures and ventilation holes. We’ll step into the hallways which were inaccessible for decades. By passing through all four levels of defense well arrive to the Kaiser well where the emperor of Holy Roman Empire Josef the 2nd drank water. Youll hear about the legends and youll have an opportunity to guide us through the tunnels at the head of our column. We can play a famous game of old explorers (optionally) in which the lights are switched off and the consumers get the task to reach the end of the tunnel in a complete dark, its called the “touching or tapping”. In a total dark with the rest of the expedition youll be able try the hear the ancient ghosts of the fortress builders of which, sometimes, 70 a day died during fortress construction.
