The Führerbunker is the subject of endless fascination. The mysterious cavern under central Berlin was the final home of Adolf Hitler in the last months of the war. It was where he married Eva Braun, and where he killed himself just over a day later. Winston Churchill was one of the few outsiders who got to explore the complex before it was levelled by the Soviet Union. But although the building may have gone, troves of historic documents survived. Now, many have been published for the first time in this new visual history, an excellent guide to the horrendous final days, hours, and minutes of the Third Reich.
