> The Soviet Union explicitly denied stockpiling nuclear missiles in Poland but archaeologists who researched the place by delving into archives of declassified satellite images and analyzing building scans are convinced otherwise.
From Wikipedia:
> In 1933 the new German authorities bought all of the area and started the construction of a large military base.
> All facilities were officially opened by Adolf Hitler on August 18, 1938.
> After the war, the area of two military bases and the town itself was taken by the Red Army...
> The town was excluded from Polish jurisdiction and erased from all maps, even though officially part of the People's Republic of Poland. In official documents of the surrounding communes, the area of former Gross-Born and the surrounding 180 km² were called forest areas and remained a secret for almost 50 years. and after World War II it remained in Soviet hands, as a military base.
