Hitler's Secret Hideaway in the Alps

The serene Bavarian mountain of Obersalzberg became the heart of Adolf Hitler’s private retreat and a symbol of Nazi power. From the construction of the Berghof, his expansive residence, to the infamous Eagle's Nest atop the Kehlstein peak, this quiet alpine sanctuary transformed into a heavily fortified political hub.
Beneath its picturesque surface lay sprawling bunkers and secret tunnels, while its surroundings witnessed pivotal decisions of the Third Reich.
Through survivor testimonies, field studies, and historical archives, this documentary unveils how a tranquil landscape was reshaped into a bastion of tyranny—and the lingering traces of its dark legacy, 70 years later.
