The Eagle's Nest
OverviewThe Eagle's Nest. Hitler's hidden center of power. The Eagle's Nest was the de facto power center from which the Third Reich and later the occupied territories were governed. Hitler spent an important part of his time there and developed his monstrous plans that would cost the lives of millions of innocent people. This is also where he experienced his secret love with Eva Braun. The Eagle's Nest provides a revealing and disconcerting picture of both the private life and the ideas and political and military strategy of one of the cruelest dictators in world history.
