About Artifacts From Hitler’s Bunker

We get close to one of only three original copies of Hitler's final will and testimony. 80 years since the end of the second world war, the Imperial War Museum London is home to over one million artifacts relating to war and conflict including a handful that offer unique insights into those final desperate days. Acting as Dan's guides today are curators Anthony Richards and James Taylor who have hand picked a number of very special artifacts from the museum's collection: Why not plan your own visit to the Imperial War Museum London? Details can be found below and if you’d like to learn more from Tony about 1945, his book, 1945 - A Visual History can be purchased here.

Hitler's Life Inside The Bunker

Step behind the propaganda and discover Adolf Hitler's private life at the Berghof, captured in rare restored home movies with Eva Braun. Explore the chilling contrast between mundane moments and Nazi horror. This video takes you deep into the secretive world of Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun, far from the World War II frontlines but at the center of global tragedy. Through Eva Braun's personal filmmaking, we witness the inner circle's hidden retreats in the Bavarian Alps - serene, almost idyllic scenes that mask the monstrous realities commanded from the Berghof. You'll learn about Hitler and Eva’s enigmatic relationship, spearheaded by secrecy and emotional turmoil, including her suicide attempts and unresolved place in Hitler’s life. We trace Hitler’s rise to power, manipulation of public opinion and propaganda, and his transition from a charismatic leader adored by many Germans to an isolated dictator hunkered in mountain fortresses and, eventually, the Berlin bunker. The video covers the formation of the Nazi-Soviet pact, expansionist campaigns, the radicalization of anti-Jewish policies, and the ultimate downfall as Allied forces close in. Key moments such as

Inside the Wolf’s Lair: Hitler's Hidden Nazi Headquarters

We went inside the Wolf's Lair (Wolfsschanze), Adolf Hitler’s secret Eastern Front military headquarters. Get an exclusive look at Hitler's bunker, Alfred Jodl's bunker, Hermann Goering's bunker, and Wilhelm Keitel's bunker. Explore the famous location of the Hitler assassination attempt, 'Operation Valkyrie', which almost ended the Third Reich. Luke Tomes joins WW2 expert and Third Reich expert Jonny Whitlam to explore the remains of the Wolf's Lair complex today, imagining how decisions of such immense consequence were made in this remote, heavily fortified forest, and how close history came to taking a very different turn. During World War Two, Hitler spent most of his time in his secret bunker, making it the perfect location for a group of German officers to attempt to assassinate him. The failed Hitler assassination attempt happened on July 20 1944, in the plot known as 'Operation Valkyrie'. A bomb was detonated during a military briefing inside the complex, but Hitler survived death with only minor injuries, allowing Hitler's Nazi regime to carry on.
