A new building (labeled Hitler's Office) was once the site of a building used by Adolph Hitler as one of his southern bases
of operation. I distincly (and absolutely) remember being given a tour of this office and seeing Adolph Hitler's desk, leather
chair and personal framed photos and mementos on his desk and walls. While most of the original buildings still stand
Hitler's office has since been completely removed and replaced by an entirely new structure.
A lot of history, relating to Adolph Hitler has been destroyed for reasons stated in the excerpt from Wikipedia regarding
the obliteration of Hitler's F�hrerbunker:
"Since 1945 government authorities have been consistently concerned about the
site of the bunker evolving into a Neo-Nazi shrine. The strategy for avoiding this has largely been to ensure the
surroundings remain anonymous and unremarkable. However, many feel this is simply erasing the past and ignoring the fact
that it is essentially the most famous war bunker in history. In 2005 the location of the bunker was not marked in any way. The
immediate area is occupied by a Chinese restaurant and shopping mall while the emergency exit point for the bunker
(which had been in the Chancellery gardens) is occupied by a parking lot".

Over the last 47 years the Mercedes-Benz factory has grown to an enormous size. Its parent company (Gottlieb-Daimler)
recently outbid Las Vegas casino mogul Kirk Kerkorian for the acquistion of the Chrysler Corporation, making it likely
to become the world's biggest producer of automobiles.
