[edit] Description

This is a map of the Fuehrerbunker which I created in 2004. Since I was making a scale model of the bunker, I made a thorough research on the layout. I am however not saying that the layout is exact, but it is ranging from probable to very probable.

There were actually two bunkers - the Fuehrerbunker and the Vorbunker (here is the link to my map of the Vorbunker, and here is the link to my map of the bunker locations.)

I found that information about the details was rather scarce (which is not strange, since the bunkers were secret), but finally I managed to make a reasonably probable reconstruction, thanks to the excellent research of Tom Posch (see below), who visited and photographed the remains from inside in 1988. He concluded that the map of the bunker in Cornelius Ryan's "The Last Battle" was incorrect, and a new, hand-drawn map of the Vorbunker was produced by Tom Posch. I continued this work by comparing texts, photographs and maps, trying to deduce the location of the bunkers and the sizes and layout of the interiors. The result of this research is this map. Since most other maps I have seen are more or less based on the 1966 map in "The Last Battle", this reconstruction, thanks to Tom Posch, could very well be the most accurate to this date.

Notes on the location of the bunkers:

The Fuehrerbunker, built in 1944, was located 17 meters beneath the Reichskanzlei garden, approx. 120 meters north of the new Reichskanzlei building, which had the address Vossstrasse 6. The Führerbunker was located somewhat lower than the Vorbunker and west (or rather west-west-south) of it. The two bunkers were connected via sets of stairs set at right angles (not spiral).

Notes on the layout:

When I have been particularly uncertain I have placed a question mark on the map.
The positions of the furniture in Hitler's and Eva Braun's rooms have been deduced by studying various accounts and photographs of the interiors.
The exact position of water & ventilation facilites and showers are uncertain. Whether the entrance to the Fuehrerbunker had one or two, or any, gas doors is also uncertain.

Construction data (approx.):

Material: Concrete
Protective Wall Width: 220 cm
Protective Roof Height: 280 cm
Wall Width (interior): 15-20 cm
Door Heights: 180-200 cm
Door Widths: 120 cm
Room Heights: 2-3 m
Room Sizes: Varying; 3-5 m

The reconstruction is based on the following sources:

Allied Intelligence Map of Key Buildings in Berlin (Third Edition, 1945)
After The Battle, No.61, Special Edition (Editor Winston G. Ramsey and researcher Tom Posch.)
The Last Battle (Cornelius Ryan, 1966)
