In April, 1945, as Russian and German troops fought — savagely, street-by-street — for control of the German capital, it became increasingly clear that the Allies would win the war in Europe. Not long after the two-week battle ended, 33-year-old LIFE photographer William Vandivert was on the scene, photographing Berlin’s devastated landscape.
Hitler's Pool Room, where he and Goring would knock balls around while debating future plans. It has come to light that Operation Barbarossa was the result of Hitler having to perform a dare because he scratched on a break.
Hitler's Love Pad, where he and Eva Braun enjoyed intimate moments between Russian shillings.
