Berlin is built on a flat alluvial plain and has a very high water table. Nearly all of the photos here show some form of active and/or past flooding going on. During the final days of WWII, Hitler himself expressed fears that a direct hit by an allied bomb could fracture the walls of his bunker under the Reichs Chancellery and cause all the occupants to drown. Obviously, flooding has claimed many of these bunkers. The identical thing has happened at many of the abandoned SAC missile silos here in the United States, many of which are completely flooded now by ground water.
