The Nazi Bunker Sitting Under a Paris Train Station

Thousands of passengers that pass through the station each day, right under their feet, between platforms 2 and 3 at the Gare de l’Est lies an old concrete World War II bomb shelter. One of the busiest stations in the heart of Paris, the 19th century terminal is hiding a 120m² wartime bunker that was half-built by the French as an air raid shelter and taken over by the Germans during the four-year Nazi occupation, evidenced by inscriptions on the walls.

It looks like a real life version of Doom.
