🗓️ August 07, 2025 🕒 14:10 pm 🌡️ 23 C (73,4°F) Sunny Ordensburg Sonthofen was constructed beginning in 1934 as one of the three NS-Ordensburgen, elite training complexes established by the Nazi regime to indoctrinate and train high-ranking party and military cadres. It was commissioned by the German Labour Front (DAF) and designed by architect Hermann Giesler in a neoclassical style with Heimatstil influences.   The site featured a monumental layout: a 43 m tower (the Palas) with bell tower, a vast dining hall seating up to 1,500, dormitories, library, sports facilities, and administrative blocks. Originally intended to train NSDAP (Nazi Party) functional elite, the complex hosted Adolf-Hitler-Schulen by 1937, accommodating students—often boys from across Germany—who underwent ideological, physical, and administrative training. Courage tests, such as balcony jump drills, were part of the regime’s character-forming methods.    Prominent Nazi figures visited the site: Adolf Hitler spoke there in 1937, and Heinrich Himmler delivered a notorious speech in 1944 justifying the Nazi genocidal policies. In the final phase of World War II, the Ordensburg was repurposed as a military hospital (lazarett).   After the war, the French military took control, followed by a U.S. Constabulary school, and later a U.S. Air Force basic training center from 1951–52. In 1956, the Bundeswehr acquired the facility, renaming it Generaloberst-Beck-Kaserne in honor of Ludwig Beck, a German general and anti-Nazi resistance figure.   From the 1950s through 2009, it served as host to Bundeswehr schools (e.g., Military Police and Staff Service training). Since then, it’s undergone modernization while remaining a protected historical site under ensemble heritage protection. Standing prominently above Sonthofen, the structure is both a landmark and a sobering symbol of its link to National Socialist history. Locals and historians recognize it as a “Täter-Ort” (a site of perpetration), given the ideological training and speeches by leading Nazi figures that took place there. I tried to enter but it was not posible since us still is an active Bundeswehr (German Army) facility, so the grounds are not open to the general public. 🎥 Video Details: DJI Osmo Pocket 3 Resolution: 4K Ultra HD 📌 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more 4K travel videos! 🔶 Get my Munich & Germany Merch and show your support! https://travellerexplorer.myspreadsho... 🔷 Help for the coffee with a donation! https://paypal.me/travellerexplorer?c... ⭐️ Support us on Kofi: https://ko-fi.com/travellerexplorer 🔴 PLAYLIST    • German Alpine Road      • Germany Romantic Road      • Austria      • 🌃 Munich Night Walks | Beautiful City Walk...      • Walking in the Rain 🌧️ | Relaxing Rainy Da...      • Germany: Bavaria State 🇩🇪 | Scenic Walks i...      • Munich Day Walks 2024      • Snow Walks ☃️      • Warsaw Night Walks      • Nature Walks      • Historical War World 2 Walks   Let's get connected: Instagram:   / travellerex.  .
