Kehlsteinhaus (Eagle's Nest)
The Kehlsteinhaus, commonly called the Eagle’s Nest, is a historic mountain retreat located near Berchtesgaden, Germany. Built during the Nazi era as a gift for Adolf Hitler’s 50th birthday, it served as a mountain refuge and was intended for meetings and leisure. Perched atop a 1,834-meter mountain, it offers stunning panoramic views of the Alps. Today, it functions as a museum and tourist site, accessible by a scenic bus route and elevator. The Eagle’s Nest symbolizes a complex era in history but is primarily appreciated for its architectural beauty, historical significance, and breathtaking landscape.
