Unveiling the Secrets of Naples, A Journey Through the Bourbon Tunnel

The Bourbon Tunnel, an underground network in the city, was initially designed in the 1800s as an escape route for King Ferdinand II. Although abandoned after his death, it found new purposes over the years, including as a vehicle storage in the 1930s and a military hospital during World War 2. Post-war, it became a dumping ground before being sealed and forgotten. Rediscovered in 2005, it is now open to the public, offering a glimpse into the past.
