Dr. Felton is my favorite Historian, his wide knowledge of history is simply incredible, and his work on TH-cam is truly some of the best in the world.
Dr Felton when I was in hospital in 2020 I didn’t know I would pull through I couldn’t breathe unaided I was so weak but I started watching your your videos and it got me through them dark times it took my time away from the physical pain you genuinely have no idea how much it took my pain away! I have a wife 8children a full time 50hour job a week amazing wife and a real life! I don’t think you understand how much your videos help people thank you for being part to the most important chapter to date in my life
I was stationed in Berchtesgaden in 1984. Little had been touched. Plenty of rubble and pieces of buildings, ruins that have been fixed today. I am glad I was there 40 years ago now. Best army duty station ever!
@@ant7936Yes the deletion of ambient sounds and their replacement with music in videos meant to be immersive (such as natural scenery, aviation etc) is one of the great, unexplainable scourges of youtube. I bet Adolf Hitler is metaphorically rolling over in his grave over the phenomenon.
The only time I've seen my grandma's face, usually a happy go lucky person always smiling, turn pale and with wide open eyes full of terror, was while we were watching tv together and changing channel we ended on a world war II doc with the sound of air raid sirens. I was a kid and old war tales always amazed me but in this instance, seeing the depth of scars left on grandma after all these years made me vividly and instantly realize what war really was
Nice scenic view from that bench. A pity about the tea-house, I think it looked rather nice. Hopefully, I will be able to visit the area one day. Thanks for uploading.
Having served in Bavaria and West Berlin, I always thought it was weak to have to tear everything down. I got my chunk of Spandau Prison but didn't want to see it destroyed in the eighties. We were supposed to stop people from getting those chunks, by the way. Maybe I should delete this confession. The biggest crime was when the Germans tore down Sheridan Kaserne in Augsburg 18 years ago. Those were the sturdiest of Bavarian buildings, but also an SS base before the US Army took over for the next 52 years. Google Sheridan Kaserne. Mark could do a fascinating video on it.
Now they're talking about demolishing Goebbels house at Bogensee if they can't get someone to take it on (for free). it would make an incredible museum
I suppose it's hard to understand if you weren't living under that regime which brought your country to ruin and made it somewhat of a pariah. They also didn't want to make the places a magnet for the idiot neo-nazis that sprang up.
Just got home from the pub lightly sloshed, a new Mark Felton video was uploaded while I was catching up with my cousins here in Moravia. As someone with both a historical and existential interest in European warfare this makes for a great Friday.
I understand why the government wanted to destroy all the buildings, but, still, it’s a bit sad that so much history has been erased. Thanks for the video Dr. Felton. 👍
I think we should have a hard look at any building built before 1945 whether it actually needs to be kept. Those aren’t democratic buildings thus are they really worth being kept as they serve nothing but a reminder of dark days?
@@emptywaterbottle6973Being a reminder is exactly why i believe they should be kept in place. The moment we choose to forget history, we give up our ability to analyze current events against the past, and we create an opportunity for it to repeat itself.
@@emptywaterbottle6973 That's such a flawed logic. 99% of historical sites and buildings aren't 'democratic'. Does that mean we have to destoy them because it's not alligned with today's views? You are really going down a path of destoying evidence of history.
@@danilobarcelos7307 nothing before the Democratic era bears any historical value. So it should be the question for every decision that they should come from a Democratic point of view. We don’t need reminders of the tyrannical past for that.
I've often noticed in previous documentaries that you mentioned the teahouse and it's great to see this piece dedicated to the subject. Ten out of ten, Mark, another part of this fascinating backstory is brought into context.
Thank you for taking us on a journey through history with you! It’s so fun to see it through your eyes, and to get your commentary!!! Always the best part of my day!
How's you fella? I'm in the UK, just briefly if you don't mind, what's the B.S going on over the pond, I'm too lazy to Google it lol? (Just give me a hint, I'll look it up) cheers ol partner 😊
@@themerchantofenglandI'd imagine the college protests are part of it. And the constitution being eroded by the criminalisation of any criticism of Israel.
@@themerchantofenglandwoke pro palestinian protesters are making fools of themselves causing alot of ruckus at multiple college campuses here in the states, mainly columbia university.
I am one of the thousands of Americans who learned to ski in the front yard of Hitler’s mountain retreat, then known as the Berchtesgaden Recreation Area. The Gutshof was a hotel known as Skytop and served as the ski center and the old Nazi Party hotel above the Eagle’s Nest was called the General Walker Hotel, still using china and silverware with Nazi markings. We were a typical “mongrel” American mix that included blacks, Poles, Jews, etc. that would have really galled Hitler. What poetic justice!
Awesome tour ! It's like stepping back into history with a combination of current n historical archival film footage n still pictures ! So much infamous history. Kudos for ur extensive research n tireless labor. Anticipating ur next one. Peace
Now this is why I love this channel, I can learn about many different things.. I'd love to visit Germany some day but the one I really want to see is Finland.
Mark, I may never get to go to these places, and the video and photos are awesome, as well as the history, thanks to you I do kinda of get to go and see and hear these things, so thank you! excellent work I love it!
I visited Mooslahnerkopf four years ago. Definitely off the beaten track, a muddy trail in parts. Worth the hike to experience history like this. The present rail and bench I believe were installed by a film company who at some point were shooting there.
I'm glad you're out there documenting this stuff for people to see. It's good that it's an actual historian doing it, as opposed to some influencer or worse yet a "fan".
Dr. Felton has really grabbed my interest and I love this channel. Although I am much more of a Roman empire fan, my father taught world history so I'm well versed in both world wars and the content on this channel is top notch. Subscribed for sure.
another fascinating production,thank you.When I was there,I remember the lunch at the Kehlstein was very good,and of course the view was beautiful. I have read that,early on,before he was Chancellor,he enjoyed a restaurant called Osteria,I believe,but not sure of the location.When I was there in the 90's,there were still more identifiable reminders of the Mooslahnerkopf ,as you mentioned
I made a similar historical reenactment of walking thorough parts of what was Augustinian "Imperial Rome". It was certainly not as scenic, being covered over in most parts by modern Rome. But it was enlightening as a way to "feel history" by being in the places where the ancient Romans would have once walked. Fascinating to walk though these places.
Such a wonderfully presented video and explanation. I have been interested in history most of my life. Only now in my late years taking a great interest in both world wars. My darling Dad was a Medic in Gallipoli and returned after six years having stayed on as a peacekeeper for an extra year. If only I had known what he had been through. Now my interest in WW2 is just beginning. Have been to Germany twice but saw nothing of this. How I wish I had before it now being too late. Thank you for this posting.
Thanks Mark, fascinating ! Possibly many of us, in a way, take this part of history for granted, but there are times when I have to pinch myself as a reminder that it all actually occurred & of the enormous consequences of it all.
Mark, I really enjoy the content of your videos. Top quality, good narration and photos. I’ve enjoyed your videos immensely. The ONE criticism is have is the opening music.

This was great 👍 👍 👍!!! Bet you had a wonderful time there!! We had a great time there after Desert Storm at the Eagles Nest. Active Duty Army!!! Went on a lot of AFRC Trips!!
After visiting Berchttesgaden in 2007, I certainly must go back, and will this year. Missed the Mooslahnerkopf Teahouse that time due to overgrown paths and indeed the lack of (internet) sources.
Not very many people go there, at least compared to the Berghof. The Berghof is much closer to the Documentation Center, being probably most the reason. Also it is more well known. Neither are featured on the maps, or on the trail signs. The biggest difference being that the Berghof does have an actual board telling you where you are and what it is. When you get to the Teehaus, no context is given. Like Mr. Felton said you have to know. The paths were very muddy, and slightly overgrown. At least recently. When I arrived at the tea house there was a gentleman there. When we arrived he left. I sat there for 20 minutes. Then by the time I was getting up a couple showed up, and I checked out the rubble. Then another couple showed up, but was only there for a very short time. It was interesting but not much to see. The bench and outlook is however amazing because of the view, and the ability to even see Salzburg. I am sad that I did not think to visit the bunker below. I would have, but by the time I realized where it was I had walked back up hill near the Berghof, and was in no mood to hike back down to hike back up again. I wish there was more of the Teehaus to actually see rather than the very shallow remains. Google maps also directed in not the perfect path, as it wanted me to go through the golf course, but it was helpful nonetheless.
Marc Felton is spot on when it comes to facts. The Kehlsteinhaus was not a birthday gift from the party for Hitler, but served - as Marc said - as a buildiing for representation, especially for diplomates and the like. Well done, Dr. Felton!
Nice video. When i drove to Hotel zum Türken in July 1996, driving there in the area, i heard an MG-3 rattling. Sounds like the MG-42.... Probably somewhere over there is a training area. Regards from the Ardennes
I took wifey to Paris and Caen (we found lodging in Rouen. As close as we could get to Normandy on such short notice) from SFO bay area in Juin 2014. I did not see one tank. From either side. 😕 Made it to Richter's bunker and the Caen museum at least. We still had a good time but I missed a lot. No GPS. My bad call. I really wanted to go to Abbye de Ardennes. We,I, just missed it. That was a long drive from Rouen! We were burnt out! That trip to Northern France tapped me out. To this very day. 10 years later. But the Berghof. I would love to one day!
Even though the whole chapter of the "Austrian painter's" movement and their actions lasted not even 30 years since 1918 - it still eclipses much of modern history. As if the defeat of them was made into some kind of a foundation myth...
I'm from Slovenia, I was there in 2016, otherwise it was foggy, you couldn't see the view.. but it's worth it for everyone who is interested in this particular history to go and see the unforgettable fireplace.. Thank you Mark Felton for all the videos.. I have the original small red worker's booklet from 1941/1945 from my great-grandfather when he was taken to work in Germany from (Virmaše-Škofje Loka) - Slovenia maybe I'll send it to you someday..
@@jackpavlik563 Greetings Jack, in 1941, when the Germans occupied and divided Slovenia into two parts with the Italians, a few months later the Germans picked up people from the companies they worked for and sent them to Salzburg to work... those who did not want to go had their families at risk. Many of them have disappeared. my GGF came back towards the end of the war.. During the time he was gone, our family lived well under the German occupation and were never hungry or sleeping on the floor in houses around the village where German soldiers were stationed
"Tea with Hitler: My Time in Hell at the Eagles Nest" sounds like a postwar book written by a "reformed" SS "servant" at the Berghof. Thanks as always for the fantastic Historical content Mark!
Does any one know the distance for that walk (along the original path as best discernable) from the Berghof to the Mooselahnerkopf? That would be interesting to know.
Glad to know the arrangement of all these buildings. I had thought the teahouse where he fell asleep was right next to the berghoff, not a ways away by foot or car and I never understood about the eagles nest, I thought that was right by the bergohoff also. Just higher up.
Ironicaly, you can say that H was a modest pearson, he preffered a teahose which looked as a electric transformer station over the top shit mountain castle :)

The way you used the word ‘Massive” in your sentence is so…erm, excuse me while I open a window..

I agree. I think that I know more about history than most people and Mark knows about 1000 times more than me 👍
Dr. Felton, is an excellent historian!!!!!
Mark will never run out of things to say about Adolf Hitler.
Next: Hitler's fsvorite bed time stories followed by Hitler's favorite colors.
The best one on youtube for sure.
I like how you include relevant pictures of yourself someimes. It's cool how you visit these historic places today.
The air raid siren gave me goosebumps. Thanks for including that dramatic piece!
I love the English understatement: "A certain atmosphere."
I get goosepimples a' all with the air-raid warning.

God yeah, think how much Starbucks would have paid for it. Tricky to market it maybe 😂😂
Thank you again Dr Felton for educating us on history that will never make it to a modern school system.

I suppose it's hard to understand if you weren't living under that regime which brought your country to ruin and made it somewhat of a pariah. They also didn't want to make the places a magnet for the idiot neo-nazis that sprang up.

The “arch-toady Martin Bormann”.
Perfekt!
Agreed!
Great name for a band, "Arch Toady"
Uber Toady?
They both escaped to Argentina after the war...
I was waiting for Dr. Felton to describe him as ‘the sinister private secretary’ but this will do too 😊

Very well put together Mark!!! And many thanks for posting!
"Arch toady.....". Now that is a descriptor that leaves one in no doubt of Bormann's character.

That’s so cool about the siren when you was stood next to that bunker!
Nicely explained thanks
*what a great experience, walking through history!*
Great work!
