Endgame on Hitler’s Mountain - Obersalzberg, May 1945

On 20 April 1945, with Soviet forces closing on Berlin, about half of Hitler’s closest staff were evacuated by plane to Obersalzberg, his special Bavarian mountain village. In the period between their arrival and the region’s capture by US troops, the Nazi regime collapsed. But what happened at the luxurious mountain hideaway? What happened to Hitler’s huge house and his staff still living in it? Dr. Mark Felton FRHistS, FRSA, is a well-known British historian, the author of 22 non-fiction books, including bestsellers ’Zero Night’ and ’Castle of the Eagles’, both currently being developed into movies in Hollywood. In addition to writing, Mark also appears regularly in television documentaries around the world, including on The History Channel, Netflix, National Geographic, Quest, American Heroes Channel and RMC Decouverte.
