Amazing history museum where you can see and learn the original Greek fort from the II world war.
Excellent historical place to visit, to learn about the Balkan history. This region has a diverse heritage but the bunker is about Greek history between the two world wars and about the Second World war and the role of the bunker... 90% are Greek local visitors. Tours in English are available, people in our group were from Germany, Macedonia and Bulgaria.
Without any preparation we went to Fort Roupel, at the entrance we had to give a passport before we were allowed to continue. We asked the soldier what we were going to see in the fort and he told us to drive further up and that a guided tour would be given to us. We drove up for about 10 minutes and had stunning views of the autumn dressed forests on the mountain hills. When we arrived up an other soldiers told us that the tour started a few minutes ago so we hurried up to follow the tour. The explanations we're very clear and gave us a total images of what happened there in April 1941. After the history part we were taken into the fort for some more information. The guided tour took about 30 minutes and was from the beginning till the end very interesting.
Definitely worth visiting this place which is a simbol of courage and persistentce of the Greek soldiers in WW2. A true honor to be there.
Amazing - a must
Nice war tourism place to visit if you like this type of tourism. The pit is that here in Makedonia are much more important and interesting places to visit like the ancient ruins. Nevertheless if you have spare time you can visit this. Good luck
Great experience I highly recommend it. Even better when you make a frog mad.
