Description

Original 1930’s German Photo Post Card Of Adolf Hitler’s Berghof. For many years German Chancellor Adolf Hitler had a holiday home with a magnificent view on the Obersalzberg high above the small Bavarian town of Berchtesgaden. First known as Haus Wachenfeld Hitler vastly expanded it in the mid 1930s and renamed it the Berghof or Mountain Home. He and his entourage, and invited guests spent a lot of time there, winter and summer, inside the SS guarded compound known as the Führergebiet. The house was bombed to bits in the very last days of  World War II and stood in ruins until 1952 when it was leveled with explosives. Since then, the town of Berchtesgaden and the Bavarian government have spent a great deal of money attempting to dismantle, destroy, carry away, bury or otherwise obliterate surface evidence that Hitler, Göring, Bormann, Speer and other top Nazis ever lived on the Obersalzberg. Original photo postcard of the Berghof with Platterhoff stamp on the back.  In good condition with one small crease in the corner see photos.
