Breakthrough on the Oder River – From the Seelow Heights to Berlin

Breakthrough 14.1.1945

In 1945, the last German defence line before Berlin were the Seelow Heights, overlooking the Oder River 100km east of the capital. Failure to stop the Soviets at Seelow would allow them to advance on Berlin for the final major battle of the Western Front.
