Speer didn't design it so who did? Who built it? Many thanks... Rob.

The complex was built in two distinct phases, one part in 1936 and the other in 1943. The 1943 development was built by the Hochtief company as part of an extensive program of subterranean construction in Berlin begun in 1940. The accommodation for Hitler was in the newer section.
this is the website of the company who build a lot of things during the reich atlantikwall, viking etc ...

This is one of the last pictures taken of Adolf Hitler in his bunker in Berlin in 1945 as he shakes hands with Col. Gen. Ferdinand Schoerner, appointed commander in chief of the nonexistent Wehrmacht in Hitler's last will and testament. In the doorway stands Hitler's adjutant, Julius Schaub. Planning to commit suicide since he'd entered the bunker, the day after his wedding Hitler penned his last will and testament. Most of the rambling document tried to blame the war on "international politicians who either come from Jewish stock or [were] agents of Jewish interests."

The Remains of the Bunker
Sightseers walk amid the ruins of Hitler's bunker, sometimes referred to as Hitler's "tombstone," after a detachment of Soviet army engineers blew it up on Dec. 11, 1947. The ventilating tower of the shelter (a cylinder with a conical top) is at right. Stones from the shattered bunker, where Hitler and his mistress, Eva Braun, reportedly committed suicide, spattered the broken walls of the Reich Chancellery (background), and a few landed in the middle of the huge room that once was Hitler's office.

I dont understand why they did this. The bunker is very important to history. But the bunker is still there, so perhaps one day it will be seen again. I hope it does.

I don´t think so, the bunker was flooded after to be taken by the Russians and sealed. To the years the STASI seeking possible tunnels by where the people could escape toward the Federal Republic, they closed with cement the entrances of the Bunker and various of their walkways besides continuing the flood. The existing only photos of the bunker during the decade of the sixty are of the STASI (German Secret Police).

Parts of the bunker still remaing under the buildings. Im hoping that one day, one day, people would realise its historical value, get rid of those damn buildins ( that nearly destroyed an historical monument ) and dig up what remains of the bunker. :cry:

i am shure that 1 day he will rise and be restored because just take a look at the building they made for know

most of these social app.are made for 1 lifetime
thats the way it goes in owhr consumption society
the bunker is so strong that he can survive thousands of years

theres only painfull memories as long as there are survivors,
so lets say in about 150 years people will have forgotten the pain of war...
and thats where historie starts

so you better try to stay alive :wink:

The Fuhrer Bunker:

#28

Post by Johnnyrocket » 31 Aug 2007, 04:32

Here is a good informational poster of the Fuhrer Bunker for reference only. I'm sure this is all copy written material (e.i. photographs and illustrations. I posted it here for reference on locations with images. I notice that many different illustrations are floting around of various configurations of the rooms and such. I'm sure that this is because of improvments over the years preceeding, and including the war period.

If you would like larger copies of this poster, please send me your email address and I'll send a larger file to you.

From the original bunker only the basic concrete floor exists in the deep ground and some parts from the outer walls. Please see at homepage of "Berliner Unterwelten e.V." in Berlin. Dietmar Arnoöd made a very good job about showing the real remains (not the phantasie ones!). The remains are looking like the rest of an old swimming pool. For showing his original size he has to be rebuild completely; but who will allow this in Germany. And who will pay for it. Do you have any suggestions?
