Hitler’s Bunker, or the Führerbunker, was the underground complex in Berlin where Adolf Hitler spent his final days during the closing days of World War II. Located beneath the Reich Chancellery in the heart of the city, the bunker became infamous as the site of Hitler’s last moments.

The Führerbunker consisted of a network of rooms, with a small suite reserved for Hitler and his closest associates. It was here that Hitler married Eva Braun on April 29, 1945, just days before their suicides on April 30, 1945, as Soviet forces closed in on Berlin.

The bunker itself was designed as a secure underground refuge during air raids, and it had thick concrete walls to withstand bombings. Despite its historical significance, the bunker was largely destroyed after the war. Today, there is little physical evidence remaining of the structure, as much of it was filled in during the post-war period.
