EAGLES NEST – Hitler’s Mountaintop Headquarters Full Tour
Historic lookout point high above Berchtesgaden,

Attention: No pedestrians alowed on the road!

The Eagle’s Nest is located above Berchtesgaden at an elevation of 1,834 meters above sea level. I’ts history is inseparably linked to that of the Obersalzberg. Between 1933 and 1945, it was the second most important center of power of the Nazi dictatorship, aft er Berlin, where decisions were made about persecution, war, and genocide. Built in 1937/38, the Tea House was intended to serve as place of political representation, away from public view, and leave guests awestruck. Aft er the bus ride up a steep mountain road, a passageway leads through a tunnel to an elevator which then carries guests up about 124 meters directly into the Tea House. There, you are greeted by a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountain ranges. In reality, the signifi cance of this house during the Nazi era was minimal. Hitler rarely went up there to receive diplomats or other foreign guests. Far more oft en, it was the Nazi entourage which gathered at the Obersalzberg for recreation and private celebrations.
