This place is stunning, unfortunately I couldn't visit the Eagle's Nest. But I did a boat trip on the Konigsee and definitely worth it. Ich liebe dich, Deutschland :)
My brother and I were there exactly two years ago. He served as a member of the ski patrol at the Berchtesgaden Recreational Area 52 years ago. He always wanted to return someday. He could see the Eagles Nest from the ski hill every day, but, of course, could never go up there until now. We really enjoyed our time there. Beautiful area, and we were able get excellent lodging just about five kilometers away.
I went there with my parents more than 30 years ago. It was a bit unreal, as we first visited the museum at the Dachau concentration camp near Munich, which was a pretty depressing experience. The next day we were at the Eagle's Nest, so it felt weird. If you just focus on the place, it's absolutely exceptional. The ride up and the views are amazing. You can't quite get rid of the feeling that it was a property where one of history's worst human being spent some time, but the location remains incredible. Koenigsee is absolutely wonderful too, Gustav Mahler spent a lot of time there and wrote some of his best music at a house by the lake. Definitely a lot of history and art in that region (not to forget nearby Salzburg), in a wonderful natural setting.
Great video but the Eagles Nest was not Hitler’s tea house. His Mooslahnerkopf Teehause was situated in walking distance of the Berghof, his residence in Berchtesgaden and he visited almost daily when there. He actually hated the Eagle’s Nest due to its elevation and only visited a handful of times.
Love thus video thanks for sharing. The Eagkes Nest was not Hitlers teahouse, that was further down from The Berghoff and now destroyed but foundations still visible. He hated the EN !
It is like a dreaming! Very beautiful place I ever seen, sorry watched... But I hope one day I also visit there! Thank you for showing us this amazing nature!
I agree the area is stunning. How anybody would not love it there is beyond me. I visited from the USA in 2009 on my 60th birthday. I am the founder of the WWII Historical Re-enactment Society here. I relate my historical journey there and my life fascination with history in my book, A BRIDGE TO TIME, A Re-enactor's Journey. Several books in one it begins as I depart St. Louis as the British SOE plot to assassinate AH unfolds. It is a what if tale. I relate as a Baby-Boomer the influences the propelled me there. It also includes a brief travelogue and the final portion details how World War Two re-enacting came to be. I wanted so much to return when Covid hit as I knew so much more after researching my book. Sadly, I've yet to return.
Hi Lukas could you show us the place where 3 Roman Legions were killed plus any items from then that were found at the battle site, and is it possible to show us how the new entry / exit system works at airports in Germany I keep reading it could take 8 hours to do fingerprints and bio metric scan is this true ?
They should. It was significantly damaged. It would be a shrine to atrocity and the person who led it. Around the berghof site you can see massive craters still. Some five metres deep today
@@paulgerrard9227 Allways use the "shrine-excuse, to erase history... But do not worry, they allready destroyed allmost all of it... I guess you have no problem with Kehlsteinhouse.
Not sure if you can translate the German words Idylle and Konzept directly into its English counterparts. They mean slightly different things in English and need a different context. Which is probably why it sounds strange, in the video, when you use these words in your chosen contexts.
The area is undeniably beautiful and would love to visit. However, i feel a little guilty for liking it just because of its significance in the history of a brutal dictator. Perhaps i need to get over that before I visit.
Wow, such a beautiful country, But it is really sad that nowadays, because of these refugees and illegal immigrants who come from war-torn countries, Germany is seeing a lot of crimes. The Solingen incident is an example.
Lukas is one the best things that happened in DW. Extremely handsome guy, sympathetic, friendly and very competent in all his reporting.
Fantastic tour. My wife and I were in Salzburg and regret we never included the boat ride on Lake Konigsee. The echo experience was quite unique.
Lukas….We love you. You are my favourite DW presenter. Thank you for yet another fascinating and insightful video. Cheers. Zoltán (Dubrovnik)
Thank you!! 🤗

Are you from Germany?
Brilliant tour Lukas some very interesting places there, you visit some amazing places for DW Travel.

This video has single-handedly made me obsessed to visit southern Germany

A really interesting tour! Great landscape, the lake, mountains and all the historic past!

Allied planned to assasinate him here on his daily visits
I visited the area in 2017. It was a wonderful experience. Wisconsin, USA resident.
I was there almost 25 years ago. I will never forget the beauty and the history of Berchtesgaden. Gott mit dir du Land der Bayern!
Thank you for your great repor Lukas.
Such insightful video. Thanks for sharing these places and stories. At least this way i can travel and see the world. :)
Great video, well done
Stunning views. It looks like an amazing place to visit. One day! ❤
5:45 Das Doku-Center ist ein Muss! Hochinteressant und Pflichtprogramm für jeden Geschichtslehrer mit seiner ganzen Klasse.
aufklärung ist durch, man darf selbst denken
@@joggerexterminator Ja eben, dafür ist es wichtig.
It's a very beautiful place, I visited in 2019, and am thinking of going back next year.
The austrian guy, is the past! The capital of Germany, Berlin, wunderbar 🇩🇪, and the German Province of Bavaria, is wunderbar too!🇩🇪
We didn’t wait the long line for the elevator we took the trail instead. The eagles nest was an amazing place to see it and experience it!
Que lugares tan hermosos ❤

Enchanting views!!!
Breathtaking views.

Berchtesgaden ist wunderschön 🤩

Lov u dear for showing 💖 me such a beautiful place
Bavaria is really amazing looking beautiful and cute place
Thanks RK Dua New Delhi India
Chase the Sunset, Embrace the Journey
Amazing views and a dark past.
I’ve have been there and I think you may be right about it possibly being the most beautiful place on earth
Eagles Nest, I think schloss adler in Alistair Macleans novel Where eagles dare.
Hi Lukas could you show us the place where 3 Roman Legions were killed plus any items from then that were found at the battle site, and is it possible to show us how the new entry / exit system works at airports in Germany I keep reading it could take 8 hours to do fingerprints and bio metric scan is this true ?
Can I fly my drone over the Eagle’s Nest?
The cross had Edelweiss on it.
What is the meaning ?
They should never have destroyed the Berghof ruins in 1952…
They should. It was significantly damaged. It would be a shrine to atrocity and the person who led it. Around the berghof site you can see massive craters still. Some five metres deep today

der gute alte Quotenadolf zieht immer
😀👍👍
Can I swim in that lake?
The Obersalzberg is called Mar a Lago today! 😂
Stunning view and historical that capture the Nazism era.Thank you DW

Think. the Roman massacre was at Teutoburg forest
A terrible Austrian tourist stayed there once or twice.
The place was cleansed by fire.
Relax.
those are the german alps, piece of the fiew alps germany has, a so smaller part, than is almost more switz or austrian than german.
😋
I see the "idyll." I don't see any atrocity there.
Wow, such a beautiful country, But it is really sad that nowadays, because of these refugees and illegal immigrants who come from war-torn countries, Germany is seeing a lot of crimes. The Solingen incident is an example.
