Inside Hitler's Berlin Flak Tower

 The History Underground

"One of the scariest places for a person to be in WWII was in a B-17 over the skies of Berlin. To protect the capital city, Hitler had ordered the construction of a set of flak towers that were to send up deadly fire to any airman flying above. One of these was at Humboldthain Park in Gesundbrunnen. In this episode, we're touring the inside of one of these flak towers and with us is an artifact from a German flak gunner in WWII."
