Exploring Hitler's Berghof Residence in Ruins at the Berchtesgaden, 1947, F867
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- Hitler developed a residence in the Berchtesgaden region of the Bavarian Alps called the Berghof (which means mountain farm). He was very fond of this location, and it was here that he made some of his most important political decisions. The complex was badly damaged by an allied bombing raid on April 25th, 1945.
Here we see amateur cine footage showing a lady wandering around the ruins of the once favoured home of Hitler in 1947. The lady explores the damaged interior, and clearly this was a site of some interest even then. I believe little remains of the original buildings today as seen here.
This footage is filmed on 16mm Kodachrome stock...so it has survived quite well as a record of the ruins.
Obviously, this is an historical document and not intended as an endorsement of anything other than the lasting qualities of Kodachrome film stock.

That might be the best post-bombing film footage of the Berghof I have ever seen. Outstanding - thanks!
The best is of the time the French Army got there first with local Germans stealing from the site.
The picture window part was amazing... The tourist (and cameraman) framed the ghosts of history right there.
The Window rolled back when it was intact so it was open
I visited the area in October 2018,Berchtesgaden is an absolutely beautiful location and the Berghof site a place of historical interest as are other locations in the vicinity.The Hotel Zum Turken next door to the Berghof still stands and we paid about £2 each to explore the tunnel system beneath the hotel which were used as escape routes in case of attack. The SS took over the hotel as it was in close proximity to Hitler and they were his bodyguards so to speak. Another interesting and stunning place a 25 minute walk by the nearby golf course is the site of the Mooslahnerkopf Teehaus a place Hitler would visit daily while he was in residence, the site has a fence on the mountain overlooking Berchtesgaden and you have the most wonderful views overlooking the whole area.Even if you have no interest in the unfortunate dark history it is a fine place to visit due to the natural beauty so don't be put off.We were staying in Salzburg and the bus ride was only about 45 minutes.
We are on our way to Munich tomorrow and I hope to have a chance to view that. Did you rent a car or used public transportation?
@@wilfredrios6769 We stayed in Salzburg catching a local bus to Berchtesgaden which was less than an hour, a pleasant bus ride through eye catching countryside.Don’t miss the chance it is well worth the effort
Your description is why Hitler chose it. Thank you for your commentary.
Bavaria is quite a staggeringly beautiful place. I can see myself living there.
Is there a map for the walk to the tea house or did you just guess it ?
I explored the Berghof in 1982. Only the foundations were left standing but I could still see the floor plan and where the large window used to be thus seeing the same view Hitler had. I also went down into the basement with a flashlight. It was filled with debris. Also walked around Goering's resident. It was pretty incredible to be there knowing that I was in Hitler's residence. The Berghof area in 1982 was unmarked and not fenced off, you just had to know where you were going.
I've always dreamed of being able to visit this place, but my terrible financial situation in Brazil doesn't even allow me to leave the city where I live!
99.5% of my dreams will go to the grave with me.... unfortunately this is my sad and lonely end, as I have been fighting for years to have a more dignified life, but unfortunately the country I live in ends all my dreams
@@user-uf5js4uw5z Why is that, what is so bad about Brazil ?
@@user-uf5js4uw5zIt‘s not that bad, bro. At least Brazil has healthy and cheap beef.
Interesting that 2 years after the war the main structure was still very much in place. Exterior walls and driveway relatively unscathed. Obviously the roof, the interior, windows, doors etc destroyed from the aerial bombing. It looks well looted at this stage but enough survived after bombardment from the air that it could have been rebuilt.
In 1947 the German government was still sorting infrastructure....this building was the least of their concern.
...as far as rebuilding it, post wwii anything owned by or having to do with Hitler was ordered destroyed. In some cases they only removed N@zi nomenclature and imagery.
@@jimcoop5663 Travesty. Even places with dark history should be preserved and made into museums.
@@jimcoop5663 There was no German government again until 1949. Until then, the government was subject to the military commissars of the respective occupation zones.
The main structure was demolished in 1952 when the area was returned back to the Bavarian government.
I think some of the damage had to do with the SS purposely destroying it with explosives.
It’s a travesty of history that the Berghoff was demolished. It was a priceless historical building. I understand it, but it’s still a sad thing to lose. The historical value we lost was immense and will never be replaced.
Agreed!!! Been there myself. The Zum Turken once given back to the original owners that were forced out was rebuilt and looks as if it were never touched... The other part that shocked me was the fact that it was close if not one of the cheapest places to get a room for the night. It was a win, win, win, with a big WIN on top!!!! Strange isn't it.
Absolutely amazing footage. Scenes from a bygone era. Kudos to the people who filmed it and to the people who uploaded it.
Thank God those horrible times are bygone.
"History does not repeat itself but it rhymes". (Theodor Reik or Mark Twain). The ever present arrogance of now is that it wishes the past away. But the past is always with us in all its forms...because humans are still here.
@@chrisk8805read The Holy Bible last book is called revelation. There is one coming that is way worse than Hitler. God bless
@@chrisk8805 lol
Very cool! I was there in 1983 and the garage was still there. Climbed down inside and explored. Also there was a hole in the forest and I jumped down in there and I guess it was the basement as I could see rooms leading off into the darkness. Apparently Hitler had a bowling alley down there. Unfortunately I didn't have a flashlight so was too spooked to go any further. All bulldozed now.
bulldozed under whos instructions
When the US handed it back to the Bavarian government in 1995 I guess it was part of the agreement@@valuetraveler2026
I was wandering around the foundations in 1982.
+tj3688. Apparently, Hitler had no other forms of recreation than walks and, of course, politics. That space you discovered was hardly a bowling alley.
Photos exist of his one lane kegelbahn that was in the basement. Google it.@@Clipgatherer
Nothing left of it. I went there in 2006. A set of steps was the only visible remains. A lot of soil thrown on the ruins and trees had grown on that, so total obscured most of the site. However, I did manage to find the machine gun nest holes in the wall of the nearby building. The museum up the hill and just around the corner is excellent.
We went up there last year. We got lost a couple of times. Finally found the visitor parking place. It is a very beautiful area! Very hilly and wooded with the mountains in view. That area feels like you’ve stepped back in time. We came in via the Austrian side.
Such a shame it was not saved. It could have been a museum. Great footage
I would under nornal circumstances agree, but i'll disagree this time. There is no merit. It's not a ancient archictecture or similar, just a basement of a infamous tyrant. That is all. Under those circumstances you might as well preserve his used handkerchiefs and undies. It's just as pointless.
At least with Escobar's home (think it's a museum now or whatever) he was infamous character that's quite mainstream in the open.
But for that mustache dude, it was just a residence that mr htler utterly and poorly designed by having the window right above the garage like a complete mxron.
@@VinnyUnionstill,i would love to be able to visit it. I am sure that you would,also
@@bloodcurdling3581 duh, being able to walk on the same exact footsteps on the original floor must be surreal. Similarily to that rome "open museum" that's sort of in the middle of the city which has cats roaming and indirectly defending it. (I have no clue how that historical site was called. Just that cats were roaming at it.)
I agree. It shoulf have been preserved as a museum and to bring light that this evil person who perpetrated the holocaust was actually real. By destroying this part of history you simply make people more curious. The destruction of these sits was a way the German government tried to wipe away more evidence of Hitler and the holocaust.
Maybe they didn't want neo-nazi Holocaust-denying Hitler-worshippers making it a pilgrimage shrine. That's why the Germans destroyed nearly everything after the war.
My mother who fled Vienna just before the Anschluss because of Hitler, visited in 1948. There was a lot more to see than now. She fell and hurt her foot badly. She always joked that it was Hitler's ghost.
It wasent Hitlers ghost, He was in Argentina by then......
If you dig just a little in front of the still intact retaining wall and the surrounding area you can find loads of those red berghof bricks. They were flying everywhere as the place was blown up in the early 50s. There also are „humps“ on the ground which in 90% contain bigger chunks of the berghof walls.
It's great that this footage exists. Thank you for posting it. You can see what became of the Berghoff after the bombing. Historical footage.
I wish I could have seen it. Been to the Berghof. Why did they destroy this site in 52? Why did they have to wipe out everything except for the Eagles Nest?
Pitiful treatment of history. Most significant site in the world.
It was feared by the Germans that it would be a pilgrimage site for neo-Nazis.
"Most significant site in the world"? We preserved the concentration camps and massive ovens where millions of innocent lives were destroyed by the occupant of the "Most significant site in the world" That is the history we need learn from, to reinforce continuously the consequence of hatred.
They didn't want it to become a place for neo nazis and others.
@@ge2623 I understand that argument, but you do not bulldoze history because people you don't like might show up.
You could tear down the Eagles Nest for the same reason. Where are the nuts today. You don't see them there.
I do appreciate your point though.
@@bozotheclown935 I agree. I just thought by your question you didn't know the official reason.
Fascinating movie, thanks for uploading. The first time i was there (around 1975) the Garage was still there but covered below earth...the upperpart was still to see a bit between the growing forest.
The SS baracks and Görings house basement ruins where still there also. I visited the place about 5 times...The last time i was there (around 2018) there was nothing left but a new build memory museum and grasslands (beside the eaglenest on top offcourse).
I went to Berchtesgaden I went to the Berghoff I would love to see it restored to its former glory- the view, the whole area is captivating-
Would that also apply to the coliseum in Rome where thousands of Christians were sacrificed should that have also been pulled down or the house of Joseph Stalin or Tol Sleng in Cambodia where Pol Pot had thousands killed for being middle class??
And the same can be said about Montezuma’s pyramids in Mexico City. The amount of human sacrifices that occurred there are horrendously staggering.
I guess it would have made a great tourist attraction.
Bit odd our allies bombed the hell out of the place, but left the Japenese leaders place
( the palace ) alone.
The Emperor's Palace was bombed and most of it was destroyed.
Um… you might want to recheck your facts. The imperial palace in Tokyo was devastated by bombing
@@LongJumpingSurprise Good.
That's a very nice historical video! There's not much film available from the ruins.
We went to the Eagles nest and once we came back down while waiting for the bus back to Munich I was able to find the ruins of the Berghof quite by chance. There is only the retaining walls left and a lot of trees, and nothing else. The remains are literally within walking distance from the parking lot of the buses that take you to the Eagles nest. An older German gentleman told me where it was after I asked him and went and saw it while waiting for the bus to go back to Munich. I saw the hotel Zum Turken as well, just a few yards away. I even picked up a couple of Rock souvenirs from the site. I wont forget this day for a long time
@@wilfredrios6769there's still a lot to see if you know what to look for and where.
I get why they wanted to erase Nazi history, but part of me feels it's a waste of history to explore. And Berghof could have been restored and/or remodeled to be a restaurant, an inn, or something; just because a place like that was used by an evil regime, doesn't necessarily make it evil; if that is/was the case, then all of the concentration camps should have been demolished as well, because those buildings were instruments to do evil.
But they are used to document the crimes.
This was his personal home and quasi residence of state.
A restaurant there would certainly be unappropriate. If then it would have to be a museum
Wherever you have a place of beauty you will always have some twisted jerk eager to destroy it
@user-wj6dt5bq3w Lenin's tomb isn't used as a Shrine by thousands of neo-nazis every year
A fascinating historical document in its own right.
Beautiful little movie! And in colour! Must have been an "upper class" couple who made this trip.
A real shame that the remains were destroyed.
Yeah, I get that Germany went through a lot at the end of the war 😬 and that they worked hard to de-nazify, but the Bergof definitely seemed like a beautiful home and I wish we had more pictures/videos of it:)
@@OpalLeighYeah, let's rebuild AHs home 😂 lol.
Thank you very much for sharing this absolutely amazing historical video.
Incredible footage, it would have been something to be going through it! and that big bay window , what a view!! thanks for the footage.
OUTSTANDING FOOTAGE--THANK YOU FOR POSTING!
this is also a very impressive , now & then video of the berghof
ua-cam.com/video/P0s3vKfN40g/v-deo.htmlsi=JYnbTNaaWJgTDVCw ..
I was in this area in 1986. And no more is left. But I saw a guest house 100 meters from hitlers house nearly still intact. The only thing who was missing was the wooden floors.
Maybe that was hitlers eagles nest...a little building he would walk to in the early evening with people or blondi
Wrong! I’m guessing it was Herr Hitlers Teahouse that indeed was part of his daily routine!
Realistically, the “Eaglesnest” isn’t accessible by foot from the parking lot much less having the energy after successfully surviving the walk from the Berghof!!
Just saying!
@@garryt4443 That was the Mooslahnerkopf Teehaus, although taken down the views from there are unbelievable
The guesthouse “Zum Türken” there’s an underground network of tunnels underneath …leading to the Führers bunker, I’ve been visiting it
A pity that place was demolished..like chancellery of Berlin
Not really.
The Neue Reichskanzlei was far more interesting from architecture standpoint.
Just watched another UA-cam video from Eva Braun (8mm fantastic colour quality) from the 30s when the place was very much in use - stark contrast!
Fascinating that the Germans managed to persuade the allies (through Dulles OSS in Switzerland- using compromised codes) that this was going to be a national last stand - leading to diversion of efforts in the closing stages of the war (leading to a massive bombing raid in April 1945).
Great video - thanks for uploading.
A scene from a Gene Kelly film called "The Devil Makes Three" was filmed there in 1952 just before the Berghof was torn down
Maybe I am wrong, but part of me thinks all of it should have been preserved for the sake of history......
I would love to buy that place and rebuild it to the original form 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇩🇪
Hmmm😂 I wonder what you think of Hitler
I think that would involve recreating the swastikas and other Nazi paraphernalia. Don't think the locals or the government would allow that.
Would you also grow a little moustache?
we would love to not have to see such ridiculously dumb posts
I had thought the same for years. Excellent suggestion.
Make looking at it free. Just teach people what happened there. It was the 2nd seat of government. Stop destroying history because we didn't like it.
Amazing footage thank you for sharing. Funny how people could just wander around and through the ruins like that.
Yes, we used to think that people were free to do as they pleased if they harmed no other. How times have changed.
@@maxustaxusSo true !
It's a shame the building wasn't' left intact then repurposed.
Das musste nicht Gesprengt werden. Echt schade für das Historische Wert.
Era su lugar en el mundo,mejor que nadie más lo disfrute
Я тоже так думаю. Столько дохода было бы от туристов. Мой дедушка, советский солдат, погиб на войне, всеравно я хотела бы увидеть такие исторические места. Немцы строили и строят очень качественно и красиво
Fascinating film, thanks for uploading
It seems rather strange that the public was just able to freely explore this site and that it was not off limits. No telling what souvenirs were taken. I know the place is totally levelled now and the road up to it is well concealed. When was the rest of it destroyed, and by whom?
The bulk of the shell was destroyed [blown up] in 1952. Then the garage and the famous terrace on top of it were destroyed in 95 when the 50 year stewardship by the US came to an end. Disgraceful this was done. I know we did not like the history associated with it but history it was.
So many pathetic arguments made to ultimately destroy it all.
Even in the 60s when I was a child in the UK it was quite common to see, and play (without any adult supervision) on bomb sites. In fact I have a couple of photos of bombed out buildings (broken glass and jagged walls) from as late as the early 70s. Very different times.
We still have bombed out gaps in terraced streets in Southampton. There were loads when I was a kid in the 80's, they're slowly getting redeveloped, only a few left now.
It seems more strange to me that the public might NOT be able to freely explore a site if they are doing no harm to others. There was a time when everything was not off limits. It was a better time, for reasons I would not be able to say on YT in 2023. I do not crave official approval for all I do...such subservience is unhealthy for humans I think.
@maxustaxus Wouldn't it likely become some kind of surreptitious shrine?
SEHR SEHR schönes und historisches Farb-Video.
1000 Dank für's Uploaden 👍👍👍👍
Thank you for posting this great piece of documentation!
How sad to let such a beautiful building left to decay
Yes, it would have made such a lovely shrine to that nice Mr Hitler 🤦
Wonderful film. Interesting that she kept her pocketbook while filming.
Still a very nice floor plan. Would have been great to walk thru the ruins and the History there !
Super video thanks
Das gehört ganz einfach zur Geschichte.
Wow! I can't believe I've never seen this footage before, thank you!
Amazing photographer, you have captured history, thanks for sharing it with the world
1:30 - 1:39 = 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
Yo hubiera sido felíz, teniendo un ladrillito del Berghof... 🥺🤭😇😉😊👏🏻👍🏻🇨🇱
Outstanding video--thanks for sharing!
(The city in the valley is simply called "Berchtesgaden", without any "the" [in English] before)
Standing where Hitler stood...
Why did the Allies bomb the Hell out of this building? Berghoff would have made a wonderful tourist attraction.
Maybe we do not want this as an attraction😂
Amazing footage!
What is the provenance of this footage? It is obviously filmed by an individual of his wife on a tour of the property prior to it being demolished for political purposes. It is important to know. This could have been an American or German couple. I'm thinking American posted in Germany during the occupation.
Thank God you came here to tell us what you "think", that is so important... no sense in facts when we have you to "think".. How is that remotely valuable to anyone in any way?
@@slowery43 My gawd, bro, chill out a little bit . . .
Fue un crimen de los aliados destruir las ciudades alemanas donde fallecieron mas de tres millones de civiles, Dios juzgará semejante salvajada. Y un error destruir el maravilloso Berghof, hoy se podria visitar y conocer como vivía alli el Furher.
I really wish that Germany took a preservation approach to history, instead of trying to destroy it and hide it.
Last seconds of video in Nurenberg, is it?
That is an interesting question. This was all the footage there was I am afraid, and nothing on the can gave any hint at the contents, so I am afraid I don't know.
FYI: Yes, the last pictures show Nuremberg at the end of the war. Of course, this had nothing to do with the ruins of Berchtesgaden anymore.
Great video, thank you that i could see!
Very interesting.
Beautiful area.I'm surprised so many of the buildings were still standing after the pounding they took.
this footage is remarkable
May Putin's palatial estate soon look the same.
дай Бог! (Let it be, God!)
Thank you for sharing, very fascinating video. Interesting choice in background music, I would have thought something a bit more foreboding would have been more fitting.
I think a good case can be made for more foreboding/ominous/dramatic music. I hope the music is at least melancholy rather than wistful or flippant in some way. The truth is I wanted the film released with a bunch of others at the same time, so I only had about one hour to film it, edit it, choose the music and upload it. With more time I might have chosen something else (and digitised it rather than projected it because the colours and resolution can be a little better).
I would have hoped for Debbie Boone's "You Light Up My Life".
@@maxustaxusDevo's "Whip It"?
Perhaps, Slayer? Bwhahaha 😇😎
I liked the mildly positive meditative sound of the background music. Made it easier to have my own thoughts about the ruin.
before demolition, the rest of it was featured in the 1952 film ''The Devil Makes Three"
1:42 Based on all the fottage that now exist from the balcony, it was to bad he didnt go out there. You can see it in the background beside the big windows scene ?
I visited there in 1943, very scenic !
Those villagers suck for destroying history, good or bad, it's history and it deserves to be told and seen.
A lot of them probably hated what Hitler did to their sweet village. Sure, there would have been some Nazi zealots among them too. And of course, they didn't want to be associated with any of it after the war was lost.
Too bad, there would be a lot to explore
Like what? All the valuable stuff is looted😂
amazing footage - was also there in 06/24
I totally understand the desire of the Germans to level the place and can't blame them for doing so, but am also glad that footage like this survives.
Nope, it was the American who odered the germans to demolish it. Bavaria was one of the territories the U.S.A. governed after the victory over nazi germany.
Important architecture like Pickfair and Berghof should have been preserved
that would be the coolest urbex ever !

Very interesting pictorial document...never seen it before....might it have been an old Nazi behind the camera? We'll never know. But the comments here are so misjudged. We now simply cannot imagine the misery and raging anger felt after the war about Germany...Everything to do with the Nazis had to be destroyed.
I think this is exactly correct. I find myself as a 65 year old fan of learning and trying to understand history, wishing these things could have been preserved as museums. But I was born 13 years after the war ended, so I don't know the emotions felt in 1945. I think this is the area I am going to start researching next: what has been written/documented about the way the world felt about Germany. Obviously, at the time Germany was despised. [edit: and to be crystal-clear, I detest Hitler and the Nazis with a passion that I imagine most people felt back then, even though it predates me]
Fantastic pictures, thank you!!!👍
wow ! We need to see more ! Thanks
This is absolutely beautiful!
Lucky people!
Amazing video
What a shame it was bombed and later totally demolished.
Yeah, cos the world really needs more fascist pilgrimage destinations…

How did a couple of bombs make it such a derelict? I mean, the outside walls are ash. Did it burn after the bombing, from the bombs or the locals?
I think the actual bomb damage wasn’t so great, but the building was burned by the Germans before the surrender.

wow its like bariloche, Argentina. The architecture is identical, it must be because of the Swiss, Austrian, German immigration at that time to Bariloche, also the geography is identical to that area, now I understand why they found many Nazis in Bariloche at the end of the war.
A lot of people comment it could have been restored. They did not restored a lot in Germany, so that later generations can't make those places holy to their cause and celebrate this dark era. Like the Neo-Nazis celebrate Hitlers birthday every year with a concert. There is a town in Germany where thousands of the Right go to a grave of, i can't remember who it was of the Nazis, and celebrate there. Those are the reasons why they did not restored anything and destroyed all what was left. I know that, because i am German.
Too bad the allies "intentionally" destroyed things and places of historical value. The Berghof would've had nothing to do with winning or losing the war.
It only has historical value to Nazis, which was why it was destroyed. And rightly so.
@@davidlynch9049 So then, you think the only people that go to see WWII historical places & things in Germany and thereabouts, are Nazis ? You couldn't be more wrong, no matter how hard you try. Same as civil war places and things in the U.S. Many people are interested in those antiques & relics, not just the yankees. History is just that, you can't rewind the tape and play it again some other way.

Awesome video. I wish I were there with you then.
I understand why the Brits destroyed it but it's a shame. It should have been preserved for historical value and to show the depravity man does to man. To "stop it from becoming a tourist attraction". It still is, 78 years later.
It's not "Berchtesgarden", it's "Berchtesgaden".
Thanks for spotting this. I may yet correct it.

How ironic that out of such beauty and serenity came so much pain and suffering!
All the stone & brickwork survived the British NIGHT bombing. The incendiary bombs 💣 took care of all the woodwork. Still largely intact though.
Great film... too bad we couldn't see Hitler's bedroom and private area. That would have been great to see
Killer scenery, absolutely beautiful place.
