  • The Ksiaz Castle was built in the 13th century and was home to the powerful Hochberg family for generations. That was until during WWII the Nazi's took over the castle. They created a system of underground tunnels, which they forced prisoners of war to build. Hitler chose to make the castle his personal headquarters. He had a bedroom in the castle, with an elevator that lead to the tunnels. Today I'm going to visit the castle and explore the infamous tunnels. In an upcoming video, I will visit the rest of the castle.

      The prisoners who built these tunnels had no choice. They must have suffered greatly to build these miles of tunnels. It was a bit scary down there. Especially when they turned the lights off.

      ​@@TravelAddictGuy You really should. great content material there. So many of those projects were started but never finished. There is Książ Castle you've visited, but in addition to that, there are Complex Rzeczka, Complex Włodarz, Complex Osówka, Complex Sokolec, Complex Jugowice, Complex Soboń, Jedlinka Palace, and Głuszyca (Wüstegiersdorf). There are lots of tunnels. The theory is that they were secret bombproof factories to make ammunition and arms...but who knows? There are so many places like that in Poland. I have to say that my homeland is a goldmine for someone like you. Great video. Cheers!

      ​@@TravelAddictGuyThis differentiation is important because Germany is claiming now that they were also victims of some "mythical" Nazis who took over minds and souls of Germans who needed to be liberated. I think that such claims are aimed at whitewashing the historic guilt of Germany, similarly as the phrase used by many in the West "Polish death camps" (maybe not so much nowadays). If we do not use the precise language, we might wake up tomorrow in the world that will think that Poland was guilty of the war and Germans were equal victims as the Poles, Jews etc. "libetated" by Russians to that. This is a narrative that Russia and Germany would like others to believe. I know that currently most people in Europe or U.S. know the truth but it might get blurred in future or be unknown in other parts of the world.
