      Here you can immerse yourself in German history and learn a lot about our not too glorious history.

        The walk from Berchtesgaden onto the Obersalzberg takes 1-1.5 hours.

          In any case, "hike" to really experience history.

            The Obersalzberg above Berchtesgaden had been Adolf Hitler's vacation home since 1923. After the seizure of power in 1933, the Obersalzberg was turned into a restricted area and systematically expanded into the second seat of government of the Third Reich alongside Berlin. The Obersalzberg documentation shows the history of Obersalzberg and National Socialism.
            At this historic site, the Obersalzberg Documentation offers the opportunity to deal with the history of the Obersalzberg and the history of National Socialism as a whole. The multimedia exhibition documents the history of the Obersalzberg in connection with the National Socialist dictatorship.
            The Obersalzberg Documentation consists of a permanent exhibition and various changing exhibitions and lectures. A comprehensive range of educational opportunities serves to raise awareness and to come to terms with the NS past, not only of the Obersalzberg: the documentation is not limited to local events, but broadens the view of the central phenomena of the NS dictatorship.
