The '''Aurean Tunnel''' is a twin-bore rail {{wp|Underwater tunnel|undersea tunnel}} traversing the [[Aurean Straits|Western Aurean Strait]] between [[Montecara]] and [[Paretia]]. Planned and built between 1960 and 1967, it was at the time of its completion one of the most expensive engineering projects in world history.


The tunnel runs under the island of [[Madona]], which is home to much of its ventilation, maintenance, and firefighting infrastructure.
