This is a very rare find a large concrete section which is very typical German wartime made with the stones inside and poor quality make. The concrete section is 7 inches long by 5 inches wide in size and still retains its original colours it is very solid and has been very well cleaned and is perfect for display or any collection. The concrete was recovered in the Wolfsschanze[ Wolf’s Lair], Adolf Hitlers bunker in East Prussia and comes with 2xA5 laminated information cards with pictures.
The location was carefully chosen in this remote part of East Prussia, far away from important towns and transport routes, to be a convenient command centre for the planned German advance eastwards. The work, carried out by some 3000 German labourers, began in autumn 1940; about 80 structures were finally built, including seven bombproof bunkers for the top leaders. Their bunkers had walls and ceilings up to 8m thick. The whole complex was surrounded by multiple barriers of barbed wire and gun emplacements, and a sophisticated minefield. Hitler arrived at the Wolf’s Lair on 26 June 1941 (four days after the invasion of the Soviet Union) and stayed there until 20 November 1944, with only short trips to the outside world.
