Wax Museum Travel: Hitler in Berlin, Take Two

September 19, 2008 at 9:30 AM | 0 Comments

A couple of months ago we told the tale of Hitler losing his head: A wax version of Hitler, at least, who was beheaded by a tourist very shortly after he was first exhibited in Berlin's Madame Tussaud's Waxworks.

The wax Hitler has now been carefully repaired and is on display again. There's a key difference this time: instead of being protected just by a rope cordon, Hitler is now safely behind a pane of glass in a reconstruction of the bunker where he spent his final days.

News of Hitler's return is suspiciously absent from the German-language "News" pages of the Berlin Madame Tussaud's website--instead there's just old news about J-Lo. We guess she's more of a priority these days.
