:Dwight D. Eisenhower, Supreme Commander of U.S forces in Europe and later President of the United States, wrote that the U.S. Army's 3rd Infantry Division was the first to take the town of Berchtesgaden, not the Eagle's Nest.Dwight D. Eisenhower, Crusade in Europe 418 (1948) (The exact quote from page 418 reads "On May 4 the 3d division of the same corps captured Berchtesgaden." The corps mentioned was the US XV Corps. The term "Eagle's Nest" is not in the quote nor the paragraph that mentions the capture of Berchtesgaden. In his interview with the Library of Congress, Herman Louis Finnell of the 3rd Division, 7th Regiment, Company I, stated that he and his ammo carrier, Pfc. Fungerburg, were the first to enter the Eagle's Nest, as well as the secret passages below the structure. Finnell stated that the hallway below the structure had rooms on either side filled with destroyed paintings, evening gowns, as well as destroyed medical equipment and a wine cellar.Library of Congress: Veterans History Project: Interview with Herman Finnell

message: This is really a rather pointless pointless question, but in the Band of Brothers mini-series, the elevator was said to have been plated with gold. Was it originally plated in gold, or was it polished brass to begin with? jak722 17:54 06, June 2006
It was always brass.  They simply thought it was gold-plated.  It is very impressive; really, the coolest thing about visiting the site, except for the fireplace and the view of the mountains.169.253.4.21 (talk) 17:44, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

message: The common name for this place in English is "Eagle's Nest" as there is more than one as the disambiguation  "Eagle's Nest"  page show this will need a disambiguation name like  Eagle's Nest (Berchtesgaden) or Eagle's Nest, Berchtesgaden or  Eagle's Nest, Bavaria or Eagle's Nest (Hitler) or whatever is deemed the most suitable  disambiguation extension for the place should be (see WP:AT). -- PBS (talk) 10:07, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The common name in English is bullshit, as there never was an "Eagle's Nest" near Berchtesgaden. The FHQ "Adlerhorst" was a bunker near Obermör.len in Hessen. Apparently, all Anglo-Saxons are as igorant as their moronic Nazi president Adolf Trump.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:E2:33E3:4907:21FA:6654:8FCA:F323 (talk) 16:04, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

text: I see that "Eagle's Nest" is attributed to Francois-Poncet in the Use section, a slightly odd place to look for it. Perhaps could be summarized in the lead or the proposed Etymology section. --D Anthony Patriarche, BSc (talk) 15:35, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

text: François-Poncet was not an English speaker, just another proof of how hare-brained the name is. Doubtless a post-war invention by boastful Amis jealous of the Red Army getting Hitler's remains.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:E2:3725:689E:29D9:AE13:9680:C981 (talk) 20:35, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

message: The "Use" section says: "Kehlsteinhaus lies several miles directly above the Berghof".  Really? 78.147.23.2 (talk) 19:46, 14 May 2017 (UTC)

message: Sorry for the drive-by comment, but in the lede it says that Hitler only visited the place 14 times.
This interesting fact doesn't appear to be referenced anywhere, nor mentioned later in the article.
