Things to do in Eagle's Nest
The Eagle's Nest is a Third Reich-era building erected on top of mount Kehlstein, near the German town of Berchtesgaden. During the thirties and forties it was used exclusively by members of the Nazi Party for social and government meetings. There are fourteen documented visits by Adolf Hitler, although he did not like the place because of his fear of heights.
The building, now a restaurant owned by a charitable trust, is visited mostly because of his historic significance. The interior displays furniture by Hungarian designer Paul László.

Reviews Eagle's Nest
“Beautiful place to visit with magnificent views.”
“Der Reiseleiter Thomas aus Salzburg war super nett . Mit dem Wetter hatten wir viel Glück und zum Glück war es eine kleinere Gruppe. Hat alles gut geklappt. Individuell kann man sich das Ganze aber auch sehr gut allein anschauen. War aber ein sehr schöner Tag.”
“From the bus pick up to the drop off, it was an excellent trip. On time pick up, right at the address assigned. Bus was clean & comfortable, driver was solid.& courteous. The guide did a thorough job keeping things organized & getting tickets for the mountain. She also gave interesting history/sites”
