Swiss underground infrastructure and storage

Overview

Switzerland maintains a significant underground infrastructure, ranging from state-mandated civil defense to private high-security storage.

The nation possesses an extensive network of over 370,000 nuclear bomb shelters, providing capacity for approximately 9 million people, or roughly 114% of the population. While many of these Cold War-era facilities are integrated into residential buildings, others serve alternative purposes such as housing migrants or storing art and wine.

Complementing this public infrastructure, private sector developments are emerging to address rising geopolitical tensions. In the Brünig massif, Brünig Mega Safe AG is constructing an exclusive underground complex located more than 100 meters below the surface. This facility is designed to provide extreme security for high-value assets, including fine art, precious metals, and classic cars, through massive vaults offered via 99-year leases.
