Berlin's battle scars linger 75 years after Nazi defeat

Bullet holes and traces caused by shrapnel from the Battle of Berlin in World War Two are pictured on a facade of a restaurant near S-Bahn commuter train at Friedrichstrasse station in Berlin, Germany, April 27, 2020. Germany has been forced to cancel public events to mark the 75th anniversary of the end of World War Two in Europe but Berliners need no ceremonies to remember their downfall - the scars of war are all around them.

The ruins of Anhalter Bahnhof railway station destroyed in the Battle of Berlin in World War Two are pictured, as the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) continues in Berlin, Germany, April 23, 2020. The Battle of Berlin, in which Red Army tanks, artillery and infantry fought their way forward street by street in April and May 1945, reduced the Nazi capital to rubble. It was one of the war's bloodiest battles. Including assaults to encircle Berlin from Seelow and Halbe, more than a quarter of a million people died, say historians, although estimates vary and bodies are found every year.

Bullet holes and traces caused by shrapnel from the Battle of Berlin in World War Two are seen on the foundation of the Victory Column in Berlin, Germany, April 23, 2020. Germans fought on even after Hitler committed suicide on April 30 and the Berlin garrison surrendered on May 2. It took until May 8 for German generals to capitulate. "In 1945, not all Germans felt happy. For many it was a catastrophe," said Joerg Morré, director of the German-Russian museum at Karlshorst where the unconditional surrender was signed.

Original bits of graffiti with names and dates left by the Red Army soldiers in the last days of World War Two in 1945 are pictured on walls inside the Reichstag building in Berlin, Germany, April 23, 2020. Vivid reminders of the battle still disfigure Berlin buildings, offering evidence of fierce fighting. Traces of the battle range from obscene graffiti scrawled on walls inside the Reichstag by victorious Red Army soldiers to damaged facades of city museums, bunkers and bridges. "People living here are aware of this but they don't see it as being particularly relevant," said tour guide Nick Jackson. REUTERS/Fabrizio Bensch
