Since I'm fan of history about WWII I have visited one of famous places - Eagle's nest. Our aim was not just to get there by bus but climb there by foot . As you can see it's not short walk at all.
there is beautiful nature all around... ...and at last on a top (as you can see it's full of tourists) the bonus picture: a horse ... amazing animal. -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)

May I ask why build something all the way up there? Is it like some secret command center or something?

The idea was that he had a place to hide if the US made it that far he could see and diffend the whole area. Man think about what the US troops had to go through to get there. There really wasnt much resistance by the time the 101st (i think it was) took the Nest. crazy to think what they went through to get there and what it must have been like to stand there at that time. IMO WWII was the last heroic war this world has seen. |
