Führer Headquarters "Tannenberg"

"Tannenberg" was the codename for one of the Führer headquarters through Europe, located near Kniebis in Germany. The complex was built as part of preparations for the German invasion of France. Adolf Hitler took residence here from 27 June to 6 July 1940. In November 1940, the complex was taken over by the Military District Command of Stuttgart and in March 1945 "Tannenberg" served as command post of the German army. In April 1945 the bunkers were blown up and the demolition of "Tannenberg" was continued in post-war Germany.
