It wasn&#8217;t new, however, it was extremely interesting.\u00a0The haunting underground base is riddled with the history of one of the most devastating wars in human history, but despite finding and photographing the bunker, Askat won\u2019t reveal its exact location.<\/p>\n<p>His trip to this bunker in the remote French countryside, however, would be unlike anything he had seen so far.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">13.

From his photo above, this bunker was located deep within the forest. Historians know that Hitler fled to a bunker in German territory in a failed attempt to salvage his failing war efforts. But historians believe that wasn\u2019t the only bunker Hitler used.\u00a0Askat noticed a crumbling concrete building that was being enveloped by undergrowth and reclaimed by nature. He knew this had to be it&#8211;but then he spotted something truly unusual.\u00a0It was an enormous\u00a0outdoor swimming pool. After snapping the photo He went back and researched and learned that a giant tarp once hung above the pool to camouflage the possible German officers as they swam. The empty pool was now covered in moss, but the site of such a large swimming pool led him to believe the bunker below had to be of equal scale.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">12.

The bunker Askat discovered, although unique, was most likely far from the only bunker Hitler had in France. The ruins of Nazi bunkers still exist throughout northern France to this day, including the Batterie Todt near Normandy, and a rocket launching bunker that was never completed called <em>Le Blockhaus<\/em>. The Nazis occupied France for several years in World War II, but that all came to an end with the Liberation of Paris in 1944. Askat entered the bunker and began exploring a massive network of tunnels and rooms that sprawled beneath the surface for what he believes to be six miles.\u00a0It started to look as if he was lost in a maze.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">11.
