...Hitler wasn't at the Eagles Nest at all from 1942 onwards. From photos it looks like a spectacular place to see...and I'm glad that there are places that people can go to learn about these things. I take issue with the rebuilding/restoration of a purely military site too. I think it's probably actually more interesting as ruins than as any sort of museum. If Polacks want to learn about the period, they can go to Auschwitz.
