Well done my friend. That a commander cared about the local environment is so far above normal. The fireplace is gorgeous and the workman that did it put effort into it. Can you Imagin being an 18-year-old from a major city dropped into that area and then winter comes. That the pines are growing that slow is unusual, I wonder if they grew up through the wire and now carry it with them. Well done both of you. Stay safe and well during this winter.
The wires are a weird thing i fell and that could be it or the trees just grow slow. Loved that and thanks so much William for being here.
What an absolutely fantastic close to these 5 Atlantic Wall episodes, all about this extremely interesting adventure of only one site. Your research and knowledge has imparted again how advanced so many of these sites were. The intent was to here for a long long time. Thank you again HH and EE for sharing with us and be careful, healthy and safe until we meet in another adventure.
Yes i love this place and for sure we will return in the future to learn more and explore more Ted. Thank you so much for watching the series Ted and greetings from us.
Thank you for sharing this my grandfather and 2 grate uncles was in ww2 id love to see these in person
These five videos, have been very informative, almost sorry that it’s only five. But, onward to the next site, looking forward to the next video.
Very glad to read that and thanks so much for having watched them. Greetings from us.
Good afternoon from Syracuse NY USA brother and eagle eye and thank you for sharing your adventures in history
Good morning Earl and we send a greeting to you :)
Thank you my friend
What an interesting location, loved this 5 part series. So much to see! Thank you and EE for taking us along. Can't wait for the next location, they seem to get better every time. Take care and stay safe my friends.
That is so good to read Allen and i agree this is a great location and we will be back for more here later. Thanks and greetings from us.
What an amazing location. Enjoyed the whole series of videos!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks! Beautiful area, you can see that the area was respected, under the circumstances. The fireplace is a work of art and still in such excellent shape. Can imagine Karl, Reinhardt, and Gunther enjoying their German chocolate and drinking their hot coffee while gathered around and discussing back home. The German Commandant sounded very wise and thoughtful. Would like to hear more about him. Have read and heard many stories of kind and heroic acts that the Germans carried out. They also made many long lasting friendships amongst the locals. We must not rely on Hollywood's one sided takes portraying the Germans as monsters. Thank you for your educated and realistic view HH. The last structure did look like a Barrack and/or kitchen. I bet it was set up very comfortably. That was GREAT HH and EE. Thank you.
The commandant actually visited the area several times after the war i have heard so he must have been very passionate about the area. Thanks so much Laura for your totally awesome support. Greetings from us.
Great to see the non-military side of the installation that is often overlooked. Seriously impressive fire place, shows how well it was built to have stood there all this time. This has been a very enjoyable serious, appreciate the effort you and EE have put in to bring it to us.
I agree good to see several sides of what is there. Thank you my friend for taking time to be here it is greatly appreciated.
Thanks! Thoroughly enjoyed this multi part discovery. Extremely stately fireplace, so much time and effort put into the design and constructing. Couldn't begin to imagine what it would be like as a young soldier having to fight in a remote place away from family and loved ones. Thank you for reminding us that these young soldiers were human like us with fears, dreams, who felt pain, sorrow, and love. Anyone could have been put in this position of having to fight a war they had no intention of fighting. Thanks for all your hard work HH & EE in order to bring us realistic and genuine WW2 history videos.
Yes Laura that fireplace is something else and just the fact that it is still there is awesome to see. Thanks so much for your great support.
Beautiful stone work and terrain. That fireplace is beautiful. You and EE outdid yourselves at this location. Great adventure. Thank you both my friends.
Thank you very much!
You go to some interesting places.. I enjoy all your videos
Thank you so much for that :)
That really is beautiful forest, and those few buildings blends in nicely. Have you ever meet other people in these places?
I agree great place and yes we do meet other people every now and then. Thanks Tero.
Wire could have been on the ground and the trees have lifted it up.
Indeed that could be the case. Thanks for watching.
Our U.S. unit at GAF Beuchel (mid-70s era) used the German unused Soldatenheim as our club, kegglebahn in the cellar. Seeing the troop facilities versus the trenches offers the opposite view of war.
There you go and thanks for sharing and for being here Paul :)
Mind blowing
Thank you dj :)
Que Du Bonheur Comme d habitude🔬🍀💪Beau Travail🎬Bravo🙏🌌
Thank you Alex :)
🔬🍀🎬🙏🌌
I’m really happy to see that you remind people to consider the humanity part of these wars. Regardless of who the soldiers were fighting for, they still had hopes and dreams and families. Thanks for making such amazing videos, week after week.
So true and for us it is important to let people know that my friend. Thanks and greetings from us :)
Yea putting Jewish people in ovens or gas chambers is very human of the Germans. 😂😂😂
More than 260,000 workers helped to build the Atlantic Wall. Only 10 percent of these men were German. Albert Speer’s Organisation Todt directed the construction effort using thousands of forced labourers as well as many poorly paid local men. The department’s previous projects included the Autobahn highway system in Germany as well as the Siegfried Line along the Franco-German border.
Thanks for watching.
Beautiful location.
The soldatenheim was amazing.
I appreciate how you present the human side of those barracks and positions.
Really interesting story about the commandant making sure they area was totally cleaned up when they left.
I can imagine the locals being extremely surprised that the Germans had running water and electricity there.
It is important to see all sides of the war aspect i feel . Thanks so much Casey :)
Tremendous thanks for taking us on this 5 video adventure! Seeing the location of where the soldiers lived was interesting. Loved the location they chose. That last feature you showed, i'm wondering if it was the officers mess hall? The size of the windows and all was very interesting. Also thought the fact they had horses there was interesting and that fireplace!! Oh man, was that an awesome sight to see. I agree; I hope it stays. Thanks EE for pointing out that last feature too. Stay safe and looking ahead and waiting for our next adventure. 🙂😉🙂😉🙂😉
Yes Colleen so many interesting details there to share and learn from. Thanks and more to come you know :)
Thank you for everything you and Eagle 🦅 eyes 👀 are doing. Soo much information about history that was never seen or heard and Even known about. My prayers to you and your family.thank you Soo much. Amazing and awesome content. I favored everyone one of these amazing videos and watch each of them from beginning to end in full and I always support your channel by hitting that thumbs up
That is appreciated my friend and greetings from us :)
This certainly has to be one of your most beautiful locations so far. Just gorgeous forest, with peaceful streams running through it. I'm really glad they had a commander who respected that natural landscape.
I'm just thinking how amazing it must feel to be in a spot where history happened. Just blows my mind lol.
It is pure fun and a pleasure my friend. Thanks for being here.
If you ever find any iron cross necklaces and you would let me I'd buy one. My ancestry was German Hungarian and I have bought several necklaces with the iron cross but would like one dated from them. Same goes for any swastika necklaces. I'm fascinated about them. If I ever get to travel there I'd like to go on a hunt with you if that would be ok with you and eagle eyes? I may never travel there but if I do you are on my list of people to visit.
Thanks for watching and greetings from us.
Thank you guys for recording this piece of history. Fascinating information which without you would have remained hidden.
Our pleasure!
Fantastic 5 episode series from this amazing location. Nature claims back everything, but fortunately there are still left some clues in the area of what happened there 80 years ago.
Indeed and so glad we could seet his place before it is gone. Thank ou for being here and greetings from us.
Outstanding!!! One of the best locations you have shared with us!!! My thanks to you both for such amazing videos into the past and ate history. 👍👍
Our pleasure!
Thank you for sharing these wonderful finds with us. My husband and I enjoy watching.
Eagle Eyes is growing so much! So glad his arm has healed. We can't wait to see what he finds next. Way to go EE!
We see how hard you are working to show us the past. Thanks again for sharing! Stay safe!
Oh my , ,that is incredible kind of you and we appreciate the kind words and your great support tremendously. IT will for sure help out a lot for our upcoming explores. Thank YOU and we say hello to you and your husband.
Thank you for sharing your experience with everyone to see. Looking forward to seeing more history. ❤✌👍😎 cheers
Thank YOU Robert for taking time to be here and support our work. Greatly appreciated it is and greetings from us.
Well I’m honored to be able to see your work HH and EE fantastic! The barrack valley was really something what do you think the two complete structures were ! Well any way that’s a great place thank y’all , y’all please Be careful. Be safe!!!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Well i really couldnt tell Mark. Fantastic place and thanks for being here :)
I love your videos. Keep up the interesting hunting. Have you ever explored in the Berchtesgaden area? That would be enlightening.
We will show very unique material later from that area. Thanks.
This has been a truly awesome series of videos. Thank you for sharing with us once again, and well done to EE for finding so much stuff 👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it my friend and we loved to share that :)
That structure with all the windows was likely not a storage, but more possibly officers quarters. There would be no reason for windows in a storage of any type.
Thanks for watching.
Thanks!
Do you think the Germans destroyed these places when they left? Otherwise I would think the locals could have moved in and had a new place to live
Very rarely did they destroy them in this region and very glad for that. Such a great palce to explore and thanks for your kind support my friend :)
You find the most beautiful areas to explore. So serene now. And the fire place was so nice! Thank you!
I agree so peaceful now and just love this place. Thanks Mary.
Thank you so much for this series, on what is definitely, one of the most amazing places you have brought us. Barrack areas are always just as interesting as seeing gun positions and bunkers. It is easy to forget, in this modern time of international travel, and the internet, that, these men, were human, not just robots, manning those guns, and manning those observation posts. They were, mostly, young men called up to serve their country. Like many other young men (and women) from around the world. Young men who had never set foot beyond their home borders. Thrown into a conflict not of their making. Who had lives, and dreams, and passions, beyond military life. And that is why seeing where they lived, and relaxed, off duty is always fascinating. Imagining what they did, and talked about, joked about, during their off times. This is part of History just as much as a concrete bunker. Thanks again for sharing this incredible site with us. Cheers to you all! Stay safe and well!
Yes these young men had no choice whatsoever and good thing we have our imagination and can share this with you my friend. Thanks for your great support and greetings from us.
Fabulous work, and absolutely blown away by your findings and the work you guys do. Thank you.
Thank you very much!
Wonderful video series. It makes my day every time I see you have a new video uploaded. Thank you for all you do and as always " good hunting ".
Makes me so happy to read that my friend and be safe out there :)
You may have answered this before, but where is this place? I love your videos about it, and wonder where I have to go one day to see it myself.
Locations are never given my friend and thanks for watching.
HH and EE, I have thoroughly enjoyed exploring this site with you.
The amount of work which must have gone into building such a massive site and this is just a tiny piece of the whole defensive system is mind boggling. Great work guys.
Glad you enjoyed it Jon and we shall share more soon :)
This was certainly a very special location.
Seen so much that you rarely come across.
searching remains a challenge.
Agree Oma and we will be back here in the future. Thanks and greetings from us.
Thank you once again for sharing this amazing site with us. The barrack areas bring home that people lived and worked there, just trying to get through each day, and see out their duty so they can return home.
To see the camo net wire still in place 80 years on, this site really has been forgotten, and nature is taking it back.
Stay safe and well me friends, and some more gas money will be coming over soon
Yes i agree what a fantastic place this is. The details there are just so stunning and we loved to share that. More to come my friend and greetings from us :)
What an awesome close to this 5 part adventure. That fireplace was absolutely beautiful! It's nice to know that the commandant was mindful of the environment. Most people wouldn't bother to see the Germans as humans. I'm glad you point this out. Yes they were people just like you and me with fears and loves. Thank you and EE for taking me along for this fantastic closure. Take care and stay safe. 💖💯
Our pleasure Julie :)
Absolutely beautiful location and more than one part icing on the cake thank you so much
Glad you enjoyed it
We often forget that there were conscientious people in both side of the conflict. It is a great reflection for the Kommondant that there was no litter to be found when they left.
Indeed and thank you David for being here :)
Thanks!
That is appreciated Margaret and we send a greeting to you from us :)
What if one day some came along with enough money to rebuild and restore it to its natural beauty.
Well that day will most likely never be here :) Thanks.
Again very well done, that fireplace was a rare find, the masonry amazes me, just as the Roman soldier, the German soldier was multi remorseful and talented in architecture, very smart and hard working people, look at what we stole from Germany still being used today, defective armor on vehicles, helmet designs, the M16 and M4s all designs taken from.the MP44, gas tube, bolt assembly, magazine release button, magazine well, pistol grip, front sight, nuclear-power ,etc.... Anyways, be safe out there guys. Keep up the great work.
There you go and thanks for sharing and for your great support William.
@@WW2HistoryHunter Good morning, you're very welcome indeed my friend, took my daughter to work, it's all quiet on the k9 front. Now to G.I.this house, white glove clean. Have a super great day brother.
@@WW2HistoryHunter I remember listening to a WW2 paratrooper from the 82d talking about the difference between the French, Italian, German and Dutch, the bombed up villiages in Sicily, Italy, the people just sat and waited for the allies to rebuild everything, the Germans got right to work as did the Dutch, didn't wait, most no tools and equipment but they made it work.. mom had a good friend a German lady, war bride, her home shine like glass, huge plank floors, paste wax, wool cloth wrapped over a brick and she buffed her floors. You better take those muddy shoes off too.
What a place and so much to discover will you go back there?
Appreciated and yes we are. Thanks David :)
Truly humbled by what you have brought us over these 5 episodes, and bringing things into perspective also, thank you HH supported by EE and BBG
We greatly appreciate that and thanks David for being here :)
Absolutely insane 👍
Great place and thanks so much Anna :)
Thank you HH and EE!! Wonderful stuff!!❤❤
Our pleasure!
HH do you feel some kind of energy in these historic places?
Well i dont know what to call it but i do sense strange things sometimes out there. Thanks Joseane.
Oh my this location did not disappoint at all! It is amazing the Soldatenheim fireplace was still intact, oh to be a fly on the mantel to the nights of stories and songs that must have happened there. How wonderful to know that the local community and the Casern were friendly to one another, that must have helped to stave off homesickness for the soldiers stationed there. Thank you HH and EE for bringing us to this amazing place.
Yes wouldnt that be something and listen to the conversations of the time. Must have been special. Thanks for your great support my friend and more to come :)
An amazing fortress with an eco-friendly commandant, and a workforce of people who were, truly, people just like us. Thank you for this 5 episode masterpiece, HH and Eagle Eyes!❤️
Appreciated Cynthia and greetings from us.
That fireplace is beautiful stone work 😊
It sure is and thanks George.
That Fortress was absolutely amazing especially that fireplace thank you for the history lesson I hope eagle eyes just taking care of his arm we need to make sure that he gets a good education and he is getting it proud to be German
e sure is and does very well in school my friend. Thanks and greetings from us.
Probably not coffee. probably a subsitute.
ok and thanks.
Please make a Bosnian or Croatian titles on video!😁🙏
Thanks for watching.
Great serious, always enjoy your videos
I appreciate that!
beautiful fireplace probably buily BY the soldaten themselves. 19:24 it looks like that large cabin would have been completely wood lined, floor, walls ceiling. Very luxurious compared to the British Tommys in plain bunkers no heat or light bare concrete. Wonderful series of explores. I have many unanswered questions so I want to go here and investigate what this site was as it clearly had a MASSIVE infrastructure right down to phones going to the barrack areas. The undergound pipes you found need in depth research as this appears to be a uniqe and valuable site. Estimating possibly 3-400 troops here? WHY? What is the senstitive asset?
Yes such a great place and so many details to see. Loved it and we send a greeting from us.
I loved this series of 5 episodes at this amazing location HH! You never disappoint with your explorations, and you always provide us with the background of the sites like this, so that every adventure is a history lesson. Many thanks for taking us along with you and EE, and looking forward to the next adventure. Stay safe and well, and greetings from Australia 🇦🇺!
Thanks again Gary for your great support and greetings from us :)
have u toured the flak tower in berlin?
Yes we have. Thanks.
What a great adventure that you provide. I've told you in that past that spiritually I travel with you and pray for your safety anf Eagle Eyes. Two weeks ago I got covid from my grandson. I dodged that a long times but I'm finally well. It was a challenge for a 70 year old man. Thank you for lifting my spirit. You make a difference!
We are very happy to read that you got through that and we wish you the very best and full recovery my friend. Greetings from us :)
As always, excellent, that was a bit different, looking at the domestic life of a German soldier. Marvelous, thank you HH and EE from your friends in the UK
Thank you so much my friend :)
Episode 5 didn't disappoint. To find all of those structures in the forest was amazing. That fireplace WOW!!! This was truly my favourite location that you've been to so far. It had everything, tunnels, guns, bunkers and barracks. Thanks to you and EE for taking us on such a special trip back into history.
Such a great location and loved to share it with you john :)
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise on these amazing adventures. You and EE, the joyful hunter, are appreciated!
Appreciated Stephanie and greetings from us.
I’ve been following for a long time now and always appreciate the hard work and research you put into this. Absolutely amazing!!
We appreciate that Joshua and thanks for being here with us :)
I could live out in that Forrest very well it's beautiful , refurbing that big building into a house would be awesome in all that Wooded splendour..Good one HH.
Would have been cool to do and thanks for being here.
Well hello there. Sorry I haven't been around. I have spent a month in the hospital with kidney issues. It was a close one. I have a lot of watching to do to get caught up I hope EE is doing well. I know when I was a kid we would jump out bikes off of everything. Feel better little man. 😁
We wish you the very best recovery my friend and we know you will keep smiling :) Thanks for being here and greetings from us.
Hey Sir. You know what would be really cool, would be for you to say or teach us in German how to say fireplace or something like that. I like this video because like so many other people I like history. Thank you so much. And I hope your son is ok after his accident. Take care
Thank for watching it is greatly appreciated.
Great video EE and HH. Thanks for all your hard work and taking us along. 👍👍👍👍👍👍 Stay safe.
Thanks, you too!
Thank you so much for sharing these trip and adventures with all of us. For those of us like myself who live in countries far away it's the only way we will ever see these amazing places. I look forward to watching the next video. God bless your travels.
Glad you like them!
Nice walk m8. Thanks.
No problem 👍
Am still amazed at how beautiful the fireplace is. I can still imagine the solders having their beers around it talking about home or the war. Looking at the barrack location, you wouldn’t think a war was happening there. Almost like a resort area.
I know Robert , the very best feature there if you ask me. Thanks.
Another lovely walk through around a now amazingly peaceful and lovely area and what was there all those years ago. Thankyou again H.H. and E.E. !
Glad you enjoyed it
Good day I follow most of your posts I enjoy them,can you say which parts of Europe on the Atlantic wall your findings are thank you,I really enjoy your work
All over actually. Thanks for watching.
Interesting that some of the trails EE & you followed looked well traveled and if so means that people there did not deface these structures which is very cool. This was a very interesting series I was shocked seeing the guns still there. THank you and EE for amazing videos and history
Fantastic place and thanks for being here :)
What a beautiful area, so green and lush. I can imagine it might not have been that way when the garrison was there; probably very manicured? I can imagine the men warming themselves by that huge fireplace, the construction is all that remains of a large building? Who used that bucket and how did it survive to still be laying in the area? Your ability to make sense of all the remains in this forest is a testament to your experience at so many locations and your study of the different facilities! It is all so very interesting! Thanks for taking us along! Stay safe and stay well!!
Yes the place looked more like a farmers garden than a military camp actually. It was kept very tidy ad clean and i just loved that fireplace Donald. Thanks and more to come :)
Am still amazed at how you notice the details of the construction that is covered by nature. The rock fireplace was beautiful. Seeing the mantle around it I would think this would have been a building for the officers of the camp. I can imagine the officers standing around the fireplace talking with there beer bottles or wine bottles sitting on the mantle. After hearing you talk about the commander that was here, this location must have been in pristine condition. I wonder were they disposed of their rubbish? It was wonderful to see some of the structures still standing. Very nice series on this site.
They did keep this place very tidy indeed. Thanks Anthony.
Fantastic as always. Excellent finish to the Atlantic wall series. Will be looking forward to the next adventure.
Many thanks!
I saw one from SEVEN years ago How long u been doing this ?? 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Well quite a long time my friend :) Thanks Jim :)
I always watch in full.
Might pause sometime to make sure i don't miss anything and in times i dare to rewind to make sure i saw it better and understood it.
But as you might see i'm a little behind now with watching the videos but making my way back to be on top of things !
We appreciate your great support my friend and thank you for being here with us.
spectacular place overthere
Thanks.
Holy pancakes That's a very well laid out location! It's so overgrown now it's hard to picture it all cleared out of growth.
Fantastic place and thanks for being here :)
What a beautiful fireplace! Stunning forest scenery too! Thank you for sharing this!
Glad you enjoyed it and we loved to share it :) Greetings from us.
Amazing end to a great position been great watching and learning about this position can't believe all that was there just amazing great work can't wait for the next adventure.
Thanks 👍
Or you might not have been a German soldier, you might have been from Latvia, Poland or a number of other nations serving in a foreign legion stationed at the Atlantic wall
Indeed and thanks for watching.
What a wool wind adventure ! Alot of history being taken back by nature to be sure. Great Job guys !
Glad you enjoyed it Dave and more to come :)
Great ending to this massive fortress. Another dive into history, thanks for all the research and information you share. Great fire place.
Glad you enjoyed it
i love how you showed the human side of the soldiers and those old coins were cool i am a coin collector so that is why i love history so keep up the great work cant wait for more exploring you never know what you will find next
I think it is important to show that as well. Thanks and greetings from us.
these are the best episodes, I really enjoyed watching them, thankyou both.
Appreciated Carol :)
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Thank you so much Jim :)
👏👏👏👏👍🇸🇪
So glad you enjoyed it and greetings from us.
Very cool find, little stream of water and very peaceful at least now. It's to bad that no photos are available of this location. A lot of time and effort was put in to this area.
Excellent job young man, to bad your daughter couldn't see some of the location also.
Your son looks to be doing well. It just takes time and physical therapy to strengthen the muscles again, but he will come back.
Thank you my friend and greetings from us.
@WW2HistoryHunter like I said to you sometime back. Thank you for what you do. I would love to come to Germany to see some of the things around your area but that won't happen. So the next best thing to being there is traveling with you and your family.
Thanks again for what you do.
Imagine seeing all of these incredible and interesting places back being during WW2 and seeing them in their heyday, thank you for everything you and EE do, definitely much appreciated
Thanks for that my friend :)
No problem thanks for the awesome content, definitely looking forward to the next adventure my friend
Fantastic love your videos spectacular as always 😎😎😎😎
Appreciated and tons more coming :)
cool place. ty
Thanks John.
What a spectacular location I love thr bunker still intact thank you history hunter and Eli
Glad you enjoyed it
So interesting to see this stuff.. something one does not get to see often.. I tend to try and think what the Germans would be doing while there and how they'd be feeling. It's just different.. absolutely amazing in many different ways, I just wish the countries these was in actually preserved these parts of history
I know my friend good thing we have our imagination to use. Thanks and greetings from us.
@@WW2HistoryHunter Thanks for the reply. Stay safe you & Eagle Eyes.. & happy hunting
Another great video by the WW2 History Hunter Team.
Appreciated my friend :)
