The "Wolf's Den" (Wilczy Szaniec) in Gierłoż, Poland, is a historic site that was Adolf Hitler's main headquarters during the Second World War. Located in the woods near the hamlet of Forst Görlitz, it attracts many tourists drawn by its history and gloomy atmosphere. The site boasts 80 structures, including 50 bunkers, all well camouflaged and surrounded by barbed wire and mines. In 1945, the Germans blew up the fortress before withdrawing, leaving behind only ruins accessible to the public. The headquarters included a power station, railway station, airport, casino and cinema. Guided tours are available for visitors wishing to learn more about the history of this iconic site.

The heavy! unmissable! impressive. Built in a protective forest over 6 mi ², it was the headquarters of Hitler for more than 500 days. Each dignitary of Reich had his personal bunker and the site, served by mp3 Reichbahn, had anti-aircraft defence, garages, cinema… Claus von Stauffenberg perpetrated his disastrous attack of July 20th 1944.
All bunkers were partially destroyed; was restored to be transformed into a hotel. gloomy!
