What remains when a regime falls—and what myths survive it?
In Neue Reichskanzlei und "Führerbunker": Legenden und Wirklichkeit, the author presents a meticulously researched account of one of the most infamous buildings of the Nazi era: Adolf Hitler’s New Reich Chancellery and the adjacent Führerbunker in Berlin.This work peels back decades of misinformation, speculation, and cinematic exaggeration to uncover the architectural, political, and historical truth behind these spaces. Through archival sources, rare images, and urban archaeological detail, the author reveals how these structures were designed, used, and ultimately destroyed—and how they became symbols of a collapsed regime and post-war mythmaking.
Written for scholars, WWII history enthusiasts, and German-language readers, this book is a powerful exploration of how buildings embody ideology—and how legends take root in ruins.
