The Battle of Castle Itter: When Americans and Germans fought on the same side in World War II

In the early spring of 1945, Europe was a theater of relentless conflict, the crescendo of the Second World War nearing its brutal conclusion. Amidst the rubble and chaos, a tale of extraordinary alliance emerged, a fleeting moment when former enemies fought side by side against a common foe. The setting was a remote castle in Austria, Schloss Itter, perched on a hill overlooking the Tyrolean village of Itter. #battle #war #militaryhistory #battlehistory
