Adolf Hitler's bunker turned into beer shop

Adolf Hitler's place of his death has been replaced with a beer shop, it has been revealed.

The City Service Berlin booze store is just yards from the bunker where on April 30, 1945, Hitler and his new bride Eva Braun ended their lives with gunshots and cyanide thirty feet underground, the Daily Star reported.

A small plaque outside the site informs visitors of its historic significance.

Now Bernd Herbrich, manager of the beer emporium, intends to put up his own to inform customers that they are buying a slice of history along with their amber nectar.

The bunker was overrun by Russians days after Hitler's suicide and the charred corpses of him and Eva were found in a shell hole in the garden outside. Stalin ordered that the corpses be secretly removed and buried in East Germany.

They had several secret burial places over the years before being dug up one final time in 1970, the bones burned and crushed, and the ashes dumped into a river.

The bunker was in the death strip of the Berlin Wall during the years of the Cold War and later a car park was built over it. It had been filled with concrete by the East Germans.
