Damn. The Eagles Nest is burning down. Police suspect arson. Such a shame this historical place is destroyed. I'm so glad I have had the opportunity to visit it on many occasions.

Feuer über Berchtesgaden: Hitlers Teehaus steht in Flammen

Der Feuerschein ist noch aus mehreren Kilometern Entfernung zu sehen. Hoch über Berchtesgaden brennt das Kehlsteinhaus, einst Hitlers Teestube.

There is a lot left in Germany from then.

The Eagles Nest has been open for tourism since the 1950s. I've been several times since the 1980. Just took my kids there last year.

And a suspect has been arrested.
