About this episode
The episode explores the engineering and historical significance of Hitler's secret bunker in Berlin during World War II.
It’s one of the most notorious buildings of the Second World War – the top-secret underground Berlin bunker of Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler. But where is it really located? What engineering challenges did Hitler face building it? Was it completely impregnable, as its architects hoped? And what happens to the bunker once Nazi Germany is defeated and the war is over? Today, investigators are uncovering the true story – and revealing that Hitler’s Berlin bunker was just one of a several secret bunkers dotted around occupied Europe, each bigger and better-protected than its predecessor.
