Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Today, much speculation surrounds the history of Hitler's "Tea House" on the Kehlstein. With many original documents destroyed in 1945, reliance on inaccurate accounts persisted for years, shrouding the construction project in numerous mysteries. This visual documentation presents the complete backstory of the so-called "Eagle's Nest." It covers Hitler's first visit to Obersalzberg, the transformation of the Obersalzberg from 1936 to 1945, the challenging construction phase, visits from Nazi dignitaries, the American invasion, and the current situation. Readers gain an intriguing overview of the dramatic past of this mountaintop project, which attracts hundreds of thousands of tourists and history enthusiasts from around the world each year. The foundation for this documentation in text and image was the discovery of the estate of former "State Construction Manager" Dipl. Ing. Hans Haupner. Witness how the despotic Reich leader Martin Bormann oversaw the transformation of an entire mountain, as skilled civilian engineers raced against time under extreme and life-threatening conditions to complete an exorbitantly expensive structure that remains a symbol of the "Third Reich."
