Private Eagle's Nest Tour - Hitler's Mountain Retreat in the Bavarian Alps
Every war is a profound tragedy, leaving behind devastation, loss, and deep scars on humanity. War monuments must be preserved as solemn reminders of these dark chapters—testaments to the consequences of conflict. They serve to educate future generations, urging them to reflect, remember, and work tirelessly toward a more peaceful world.
Berchtesgaden National Park, located just a few miles southwest of Salzburg, is a breathtaking natural haven that draws visitors from around the globe. The park features five major highlights: the still-operational salt mines, the crystal-clear waters of Lake Königssee, the towering Watzmann—Germany’s second-highest peak—the picturesque town of Berchtesgaden, and the historically significant Eagle’s Nest.
The Eagle’s Nest (Kehlsteinhaus), one of the few intact structures from the World War II era, was initially built for Adolf Hitler for leisure and representation. Today, it is a mountain-top restaurant and observation point, offering spectacular panoramic views of the Bavarian Alps.
