The Führerbunker's rear entrance, 1947

The Führerbunker was an underground air-raid shelter in Berlin, Germany, used by Adolf Hitler during the final months of World War II.[1]

History[edit | edit source]

With the Allied powers advancing on two fronts from France and Russia into Germany to end World War II,[1] Hitler planned to execute body doubles of himself and his newly-wedded wife Eva Braun on 30 April 1945 in the bunker and hide until he could deliver his Apple of Eden to a Templar contact. However, the Assassins learned of Hitler's plan, intercepted him and Eva as they exited the bunker, and assassinated them.[2] The Soviet Union's Red Army partially destroyed the Führerbunker in 1947, and further demolition and burial efforts took place in the 1950s and 1980s to erase its remnants.[1]
