The majestic building in the pictures is the Generaloberst-Beck Barracks. Burgberg Castle is a ruin further north.

Originally, the building was one of twelve Adolf Hitler Schools spread throughout Germany for the training of Nazi cadres. As Ordensburg Sonthofen, it was one of three Nazi Ordensburgs during the Nazi era, along with Krössinsee in Pomerania and Vogelsang in the Eifel. As a Bundeswehr barracks, it was named after the former Chief of the Army General Staff and resistance fighter against the Nazi regime, Colonel General Ludwig Beck, in 1956.
