The outskirts of the Anapa district, the village of Dzhiginka. During the occupation, a Nazi military base was built here. Underground, in conditions of strict secrecy, huge warehouses were created, tunnels were cut. The Nazis built their base in the old riverbed of the Kuban River using prisoners of war. Residents of the village of Dzhiginka were forbidden to approach these places under pain of death. However, Soviet troops liberated the entire Taman Peninsula in 1943, and retreating Nazi troops blew up all the entrances to the catacombs. The secrets of the Third Reich are buried deep underground. What was in the underground warehouses? - there are only assumptions to this question. You can find stories from residents of the village of Dzhiginka, in which people recall how in childhood they climbed into the catacombs through the surviving ventilation shafts. Later, all the narrow passages were filled in to avoid tragedies. Still, the soil here is soft and children take risks by going down through the dug passages. This video shows one of the entrances to the catacombs.
