Diefenbunker

Exploring Ottawa - Carp 2

Our time in Carp, ON would not be complete without a visit to the Diefenbunker. The Diefenbunker is an underground bunker left over from the cold war that was intended to house a functioning government in case of nuclear attack. Needless to say the place is pretty cool. 

There aren't a lot of underground bunkers left in Canada and most have been cemented in. This one almost received the same fate but was petitioned into an active museum. We are the only ones who can decide if this historic site will stay open to the public so go check it out for yourselves.
