The Platterhof, built in the footprint of an older hotel in which Hitler was believed to have drafted the first chapter of ‘Mein Kampf’, was one of the most modern and opulent hotels in Europe.

A series of tunnels and bunkers connected the hotel to other official buildings and residences in Obersalzburg.
