    Having visited the Eagles nest & Berchtesgaden several times, I can say most people would have to agree these are some of the most beautiful & awe-inspiring surroundings on the planet. You look down on the green-blue Königsee, a clear day you can see almost to Munich, and the green mountains with their jagged tops, it is just beautiful.

      I certainly like it, too, as a piece of chalet architecture. The view out of that massive window was astonishing. Perhaps fitting though, that it was damaged by the Allies late in the war then demolished shortly thereafter.

    The window in the great reception Hall at the Berghoff was about 14 feet high by 24 feet wide comprising ten panels each of nine thick panes, there are images of American soldiers standing on the sill after it was bombed and it is possible using Photoshop to get a pretty accurate size, taking the soldiers to be 6 feet including their hats and boots. I have found all sorts of specs for the Berghoff but none showing the height and width of that window. (built strong for a windy hillside location; the counterweights for the window must have been enormous)

      At worst, that's simply an outright lie, at best, a gross simplification of the policies expounded by the Nazi Party. What is clear, however, is that Hitler despised social democratic means of governance.

      That number is probably referring to the entire Obersalzberg as opposed to just the Berghof. Based on my Minecraft replica of the Berghof, i estimate the building was 30,000 sqft plus or minus a little bit. With that being said 333 million sounds way to high. Honestly most 100 million plus dollar homes in Beverly Hills dont go over 100 million. I would totally believe 33 million for the Berghof, that seems more reasonable. But what do i know lol!
