Secret
SS
Bunker Explored!
Order DVD-128
When World War II ended in Europe, the
SS
were under orders to destroy everything they could, and only fifty years later
is the world learning the extent of their underground empire in Bavaria.
This DVD begins with the construction films of the excavating and building on
the Obersalzberg complex - Hitler's home known as The Berghof, the Platterhof
Hotel, the greenhouse, the farm where the
SS
grew all the vegetables for
consumption of all in this HQ complex.....and it shows the construction of the
tunnel complex.
There are famous people of history appearing in this tape - Adolf Hitler,
Heinrich Himmler, Martin Bormann, Reinhard Heydrich, Eva Braun, Dr. Josef
Goebbels as well as many visiting dignitaries. There is also footage of
Hitler's walking path on the Obersalzberg where he and his dog Blondi, would
take morning walks.
In the middle years of the war, Flak batteries were installed, and the building
of this massive underground system of tunnels and bunkers was begun. These
tunnel systems included an underground command center, running water, sewer
system - and with an airlock system rendering the hundreds of miles of tunnel
system gas proof, was an engineering marvel for its time.
US Army archival footage shows the 101st Airborne coming to take over the area,
and it shows scenes we have never seen before as the men of the "Screaming
Eagles" comb through Hitler's personal library, his quarters, Eva Braun's
quarters, Hitler's personal record collection as well as his private collection
of valuable art works - all deep in the mountain.
In 1990, the secret plans for the
SS
bunker complex were found, and
an expedition was formed. These secret plans are shown in this DVD!
The expedition leaders located the man who was the Chief Engineer in charge of
the construction of these bunkers in 1943 and he proved to be a valuable asset
in the history of the construction as well as finding the hidden entrances.
This was the first time anyone had been in this massive tunnel and bunker
complex, with its machine gun ports, sleeping quarters, dining facilities, rifle
range etc. since the war ended about fifty years earlier! This tunnel
system runs some 100 feet below the other tunnel systems, and so it is very deep
inside the mountain.
This DVD is the
only way to see these historic sights today, inasmuch as the German Government
has systematically destroyed all the buildings on the Obersalzberg that had any
connection to the Third Reich; they have poured the debris into the tunnel
entrances - poured concrete over the entrances then built other structures on
top of that. All these buildings are gone, all the tunnel entrances are
sealed - nothing is left but films like this.
