    Berlin fell on April 30, 1945, yet Nazi Germany did not surrender until May 8. Which town became Germany's official capital for a couple of days?

    Kiel

    On the announcement (May 1, 1945) that Hitler was dead and had designated Doenitz his successor, the admiral formed a new cabinet and ordered the unconditional surrender (effective May 7) of Germany to the Allies. His government, at Kiel, was dissolved by the Allies. Doenitz was imprisoned (1946–56) for war crimes.

    If you walk along the Kiel canal there is a plaque to commemorate this fact.
