AN incredible nuclear bunker has been listed for sale with its price slashed by more than half.
The Cold War fortification, buried in the woods of Xanten, Germany, offers the ultimate protection as fears of WW3 spiral.

The bomb shelter’s thick doors are hidden away by overgrown woodlands in the North Rhine-Westphalia.
Behind the blast-proof doors, there is a self-contained bunker with working lavatories, electricity and a filtered air ventilation system.
The “bomb-proof investment” was first put on the market in 2022 for £1.4 million, say estates agents.
But the asking price has since been reduced to £700,000 despite threats of war looming in the air in Europe.
The site had originally been used as communications hub for German government in the event of Soviet strikes before the collapse of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
The Bundeswehr – German Armed Forces – continued utilising the bunker for various military operations until 2001.
Relics of that time such as control panels, communications system and machinery could still be found inside the bunker.
Estate agent Magnus Losch said: “The facility was built in 1967 by the Bundeswehr as a ‘hub in the telecommunications network’ and is still surprisingly well preserved today.”
The nuclear shelter extends underground for 9,150 square feet and comes with a generator, water and oil tanks, and a warehouse.
The 10ft thick walls ensure protection amid growing fears of World War Three as Russia sends a chilling warning to the West.
But despite that, the bomb shelter is still struggling to find a new owner.
The estate agent told DailyMail: “The technical facilities and atmosphere of the bunker will take you straight back to an earlier time that few can speak of.”
Perhaps the gloomy past of the fortification make it unattractive to prospective buyers.
But the seller adds that with the right permit and a fresh coat of paint, the site can be transformed into a “paintball facility” or for a commercial use.
They said:”The bunker is generally in good condition, but needs to be cleared out due to items left by previous tenants.
“Many of the systems would need to be overhauled and checked as the electrical connections were also severed.
“This facility is therefore considered to be in need of renovation.”
The fortified bunker was last occupied by a group of Dutch nationals for three years as they used it to stash a huge cannabis plantation.
