On 30th April 1945, Hitler and Eva Braun woke up just after 6am in their bunker in central Berlin. Shortly after 3pm, Hitler and Braun said their final goodbyes to friends and family, and made their way into the dining room. At the age of 17, Braun took a job in the studios of Nazi photographer Heinrich Hoffmann in Munich, where she occasionally also modelled in front of the camera. During the early years of their relationship, Braun twice attempted suicide.
