Private Eagle's Nest tour - Hitler's mountain house in Bavarian Alps
Every war is a tragedy that brings destruction and death. Monuments related to wars should be preserved to remind humanity of past mistakes.
Berchtesgaden National Park is a natural wonder located just a few miles south-west of Salzburg. Visitors from all over the world come to enjoy its five main attractions, including the still active salt mines, the crystal clear Lake Königssee, Germany's second highest mountain, the Watzmann, the colourful resort town of Berchtesgaden and the Eagle's Nest. The Eagle's Nest, also known as Kehlsteinhaus in German, is one of the few buildings that hasn't been destroyed since the end of the war and preserved in its original form. Once a gift to Adolf Hitler, the Eagle's Nest is now a mountain restaurant and viewing platform with spectacular views of the Bavarian Alps. I invite you to join me on this fascinating tour that combines learning about history and admiring unspoiled nature.
