Where did Stauffenberg's assassination attempt on Hitler take place?

  • Berghof

  • Munich

  • Wolf's Lair

  • Reichstag

Answer

Wolf's Lair, Hitler's Eastern Front headquarters in modern-day Poland, served as the setting for Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg's audacious assassination attempt on July 20, 1944. Stauffenberg, a key figure in the German resistance movement, planted a bomb during a military conference attended by Hitler. Despite the explosive device detonating, Hitler survived with minor injuries, ultimately foiling the plot to eliminate him and potentially alter the course of World War II.
