A German museum is planning to rebuild part of the massive bunker complex where Adolf Hitler spent his final weeks. And it will open this summer, the museum’s chief told The Local on Thursday.

“We’re just in the planning stages—the architects are working on it,” museum director Ingo Mersmann told The Local on Thursday. He hopes to have the model Führerbunker open to the public this summer.

Mersmann intends to reconstruct five rooms of the Führerbunker where Hitler ended his life as Russian forces advanced on Berlin. […]

The “Top Secret” museum is not in Berlin, which would perhaps be too sensitive a location for such a project, but Oberhausen, near Duisburg in North Rhine-Westphalia. …

I think this is interesting. If they build it and I’m ever in the Mother Land, I’ll visit.

"The “Top Secret” museum is not in Berlin, which would perhaps be too sensitive a location for such a project..."

..."Instead of hanging Hitler's portraits all over the walls as they were in the original Führerbunker which was located between Potsdamer Platz and Brandenburg Gates in Berlin, the museum will instead hang empty black frames"...

..."We certainly don't want to recreate a place for the misguided people who still see him as a hero to come as a pilgrimage. We are planning against that," Mersmann said.

Maybe they could put it in France or Israel? That way they won't offend the people of Berlin.

Jesus this political correctness crap is annoying. Its a replica of Hitler's Bunker but you don't want to put the pictures of Hitler on the walls that were there when in use?

Why not just call it Hsppy-Bunker-land had forget Hitler and have happy ponies and unicorns and serve Ice Cream and soda pop.

Seriously?

If Tomorrow scientists report that the Earth will soon be destroyed by a massive comment strike my response would be: "Well it's about time!"

This world is now run by utter morons and we deserve to be blown off the face of it!

In before the “Downfall” video where Adolf finds out they’re doing this.

Today on ‘Festung Impossible’ Anthony and Blanche meet with Heinrich Himmler III, owner of Better Homes and Bunkers Telemark, a dank, rat-raddled and struggling Berlin bed and strudel underground skiing complex ...

This isn’t really going anywhere, is it.

The bunker was destroyed and is now rubble under a parking lot.

Perhaps they could have the sound track from that scene from Downfall played on a continuous loop.

“Hitler ended his life as Russian forces advanced on Berlin.”

Actually they were advancing “in” Berlin.
