In 1925, Adolf Hitler chose a remote mountain area in the southeast
corner of Germany as his home. Hitler settled in a small house on
the Obersalzberg, a district overlooking the picturesque town of
Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps. After Hitler became Chancellor
of Germany in 1933, the Obersalzberg area was transformed into the
southern seat of power for the Nazi Party. Eventually the locale
became a complex of houses, barracks, and command posts for the
Nazi hierarchy, including the famous Eagle's Nest, and even the
mountain itself was honeycombed with tunnels and air-raid shelters.
A bombing attack at the end of World War Two damaged many of the
buildings and some were later torn down, but several of the ruins
remain today, hidden in the woods and overgrown. This guide book
will help history-minded explorers find these largely-forgotten
sites, both on the Obersalzberg and in Berchtesgaden and the
surrounding area, with detailed directions for driving and walking
tours.
