Hitler's Secret Nazi Palace: Then and Now

Hitler's Secret Nazi Palace: Then and Now

The palace at Kleßheim on the outskirts of Salzburg is today a casino but it has a dark past. Hitler would use the place to conduct his affairs when staying at the Berghof in Southern Bavaria.

When Salzburg was captured in May 1945 by the 3rd Infantry Division, it would become their divisional HQ during their time on occupation duties.

It would also host the award ceremony for the most famous American soldier of WW2, Lt Audie Murphy. Murphy was formerly awarded his Medal of Honor on the 2nd June 1945 and Audie Murphy can be seen in some of the amazing Then and Now photos from this fascinating location!
