Hidden 100 feet inside the iconic White Cliffs of Dover lies Britain's most fortified subterranean citadel—the Secret Wartime Tunnels of Dover Castle. Originally carved out in 1797 during the Napoleonic Wars, this 3.5-mile chalk labyrinth became the clandestine headquarters where Vice-Admiral Bertram Ramsay organized Operation Dynamo (The Dunkirk Evacuation) in 1940.
From the secret underground naval plotting rooms and an unmapped 1941 subterranean hospital to 'Dumpy', the classified Cold War nuclear command bunker, explore the declassified blueprints, emergency medical bays, and the underground fortress that defended the English Channel.
