The Battle of Berlin was a series of attacks on Berlin by RAF Bomber Command along with raids on other German cities to keep German defences dispersed. Air Chief Marshal Sir Arthur Harris, AOC-in-C Bomber Command, believed that " We can wreck Berlin from end to end if the USaF come in with us. It will cost us between 400 and 500 aircraft. It will cost Germany the war"

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the aftermath of the relentless attacks on Berlin during World War Two. The Battle of Berlin, led by RAF Bomber Command, aimed to disperse German defenses and ultimately bring an end to the war. Air Chief Marshal Sir Arthur Harris believed that with the assistance of the USAF, they could completely devastate Berlin and turn the tide in favor of the Allies. The image reveals a chilling scene over Berlin, taken on March 3rd, 1944. It focuses on an area just south of Tiergarten and east of Zoological Gardens. Lutzow Platz can be seen at left center, surrounded by a vast expanse of buildings ravaged by incendiary fires caused by repeated raids from Bomber Command aircraft. The destruction is evident as one gazes upon this historical snapshot. The gutted buildings stand as haunting reminders of the devastation inflicted upon Germany's capital city during this tumultuous period in history. This photograph serves as a testament to both the power and destructive force unleashed from above. As we reflect on this image from Memory Lane Prints, it reminds us not only of the immense sacrifice made by those who fought but also serves as a somber reminder that war leaves no corner untouched. Let us remember these events so that we may strive for peace and ensure such destruction never occurs again.
