Explanation

The Eagle's Nest (Kehlsteinhaus) was built as a 50th birthday gift for Adolf Hitler by Martin Bormann, his personal secretary. Despite Hitler's fear of heights (acrophobia), it was constructed at an altitude of 1834 meters in the Bavarian Alps. Though intended as a teahouse and potential refuge, Hitler rarely visited. The building survived World War II bombings and was used by US forces until being returned to Germany in the 1990s.
