Führerbunker

Really unassuming. This parking lot could be the most famous in the world, if only because of the historical figure that committed suicide here.
The bunker where Adolf Hitler shot himself is situated underneath a parking complex for residential buildings all around. There really isn’t any obvious signage indicating you have arrived (most likely intentional), and the only piece of information is a map of the area as it was then.
The day our family went to visit, I had expected the area to be much gloomier and «heavy» considering what occurred and who it happened too. However, and it could be because it was so sunny and people were going about their daily lives, it was just an ordinary day. In fact, there was a small car parked directly above the spot where Hitler had shot himself. I did take a moment to reflect on the gravity and severity of what occurred, during the War and on the day Hitler took his own life, and it was sobering.
I wouldn’t know how to get here but if you happen to be in the area, I would recommend visiting the site, if only to pause for a moment and think about life in all its sadness and greatness.

Führerbunker? Wow… wer hat den diesen Unilocal Ort erstellt und wer hat hier positive Bewertungen geschrieben?
Jeder Ort hat seine Geschichte, so wie dieser hier auch. In Berlin ist noch Vieles aus der Vergangenheit wahrnehmbar und vorhanden. Auch aus der Nazizeit.
Einen Führerbunker so wie ihn Adolf Hitler bis 1945 nutzte, ist wie viele andere Gebäude nicht mehr vorhanden. Zerstört, gesprengt, abgerissen, abgetragen…
Der Nazi-​Bunker unter der alten Reichskanzlei ist nicht mehr vorhanden. Es gibt lediglich nur noch Rest-​Fragmente des ehemaligen benachbarten Fahrer-​Bunkers der Reichskanzlei. Aber die sind weder öffentlich zugänglich und auch nicht sichtbar.
Es entstand hier ein Neubaugebiet zu DDR-​Zeiten. Es sollte kein Wallfahrtsort, Gedenkstätte oder sonstwas entstehen.
Heute erinnert lediglich eine Infotafel über diese Vergangenheit…
Liebe Touristen, es gibt wichtigere Orte in Berlin zum Anschauen und Berichten…

There is not much here, but you can feel the spirits of the dead. This is where Hitler had his final bunker, and spent his final days before he shot himself. You can walk on the ground where his body was burned. It is scary.

Why give a parking lot a high rating? Because you’re standing on Hitler’s original grave!
Under your feet was the bunker where he killed himself. He committed suicide by gunshot on April 30, 1945, in his Führerbunker along with his wife Eva Braun who swallowed cyanide.
Their remains were carried up stairs through the bunker’s emergency exit, drenched in gasoline and set on fire in the Reich Chancellery’s garden outside the bunker. It remained here until found by the Russian Army and hauled away. The Russians also destroyed the bunker so there is nothing underground to see.
A few years ago a small sign was erected at the site with some info. This place is easy to miss if you’re not looking for it, but it is also near some other major historical points of interest.
There is no official address, but if you go to Gertrud-​Kolmar Strasse 4 then you’ll be very near the sign in the parking lot.
