Was there last year but in height of autumn so the whole area was covered in leaves. Interesting to see the little nukes and crannies all the same! Thanks.
So you went to see the ruins of the Berghof. Can you please tell me if anybody can go there to see? Were there many people there with you? Do you know what the locals think of visitors to this site?
I was also there summer 2016. The place is open and free for everyone to visit (you may need to pay for parking though). The locals are used to have visitors there. :) You can also see the underground bunkers beneath the place, but you need to pay for entering that.
There were many tourists around in Obersalzberg, yes. But actually, there were no one in the specific area where Berghof was. Almost everyone was there to visit another of Hitlers buildings, called Kehlsteinhaus, which lays higher up in the mountain.
There is a main reason why it was demolished; to attracht as little attention as possible in the aftermath of the war. As in not wanting to give nazies/neo-nazies a shrine. Sure many tourists, people interested in history and so on have looked around there through the years, not any problem
Destruction of that property was a gross act of environmental and cultural sacrilege. The entire property should be reproduced and rebuilt to its former glory. It would make a very lucrative tourist attraction, if nothing else!.
Really, what about the people that lost the lives and lived in "Arbeit macht frei" The world is better now, not perfect but there is hope. They are gone!
@@steveo601 Very nice try.. but I'm not taking the 'bait'. My turn. 😉 Funny how that logic of yours doesn't seem to apply to the former concentration camps, which are now major tourist attractions, most odd.🤔🤔
Rimrock300 Well, Guess what. It backfired! People are now more curious than ever as to why all this had to be annihilated. The Ottoman Empire was 1,000 times more evil and lasted longer than the Nazis, yet their history continues...Oh, of course the Ottomans only killed millions of Armenians, Greeks and assorted CHRISTIANS, but not as many JEWS!...now I understand!
fine weather, beautiful sight on the mountains...what about rebuilding the whole place für exquisite state guests to have a look through the big window again...there will be new strong men who will love this...you know whom I mean...
Let the past go! It happened and should have been stopped early on. No Fanfare and Olympics Winter and Summer! So explain that to somebody 20y or 80y. I could not and would not know how.
The West Germans (as they were at the time) were told to blow it up by the Americans which they did in in 1952 (I think). That could not get rid of everything though. So they tried to hide the site with fast-growing trees. Has it worked? The back retaining wall in the mountain is still there and the SS garages deeper in the forest
Should have been preserved as historical site.
It would've been a Neo Nazi shrine.
Caramel1806 they could've hired a guard to protect it from the neo Nazi
Agreed. History cannot be deleted.
@@Caramel1806 No. I don't think so.
Actually it was badly damaged by a bombing raid and then blown up later by the Bavarian government as it was deemed to be a Nazi shrine.
Destroying this place was an act of absolute stupidity.
Yes indeed.
This is the best video I’ve ever seen on what was once Hitlers home.

Thanks for sharing, hope to go one day.
I was there also in the summer of 2016.
Very interesting place.

When you went, were there many other people there to see the Bergof.

Great video. How did you work out all the room locations etc
The tea house is about half a mile away if you were to look from the terrace view, the fenced off view point is still there..
Has anyone rebuilt a recreation of this home using the original plans?

It would be a Neo Nazi shrine.
A plan to murder 10m humans was nurtured and put into action at that spot. A simple sign is good enough.The devil lived there

@@292Nigel I see your point but maybe the German people are still to ashamed and embarrassed about the man himself?.
Its absurd why destroy that ? this is was simply a chalet.
It was destroyed so that it could not be used as a nazi shrine

MrPalador The allies tried to cover up their bullshit, so they ruined everything.
Why? Because the retarded communist dogs wont the war.

oh don't tell us ....................its you .
no, he's somewehere else...but the place is still fine...better than scotland or Labrador

Are the stairs after big window view are from the great room or from the side of building ???

Thank you for sharing.

The trees have been cut down, recreating the view from the big window.
Nice view, nice video. Thx
How do you know what's what?
Yep... it's still pretty much destroyed, the old Berghof, just as it was at this time in 2015. See you next year, guys!
