This year marks 70 years since Nazi Germany signed its capitulation. It was written on May 7, 1945, and the guns finally fell silent eight days later. Despite the decades that have passed, all the wounds have not yet healed and never will, but the scars, even in the form of the remains of Nazi bunkers, should serve as a memory and a reminder that something like this must not happen again. 70 years later, photographer Jonathan Andrews visited the places where the Germans set up their defensive positions against the Allies, who wanted to wrest Europe from the hands of tyranny.
Just like people's stories, walls tell their own stories, and few pieces of concrete scream more than that Nazi bunkers, whose remains have also been preserved 70 years after the collapse of Nazi Germany.
