Underground kindergartens will appear in Zaporizhia: the institutions will perform two functions at once

In Zaporizhia, they plan to build the first underground kindergartens in Ukraine, and they plan to open them this year.

This was reported by the publication Akcent.zp.ua.

As noted, such institutions will perform two functions at once – educational and protective. The underground kindergartens will be used as shelter during Russian attacks.

It is expected that the first preschools will appear in the city as early as September 2026. Currently, preparations are underway to announce a tender for their construction.

In addition to kindergartens, Zaporizhia plans to build underground hospitals, administrative buildings, and electrical substations.

The head of the regional military administration, Ivan Fedorov, emphasized that new projects and reconstructions of existing structures are currently being considered taking into account security conditions.

Lithuania previously announced plans to build underground school shelters in six regions of Ukraine : Mykolaiv, Odessa, Zaporizhia, Sumy, Chernihiv, and, probably, Kharkiv.
