Kansas City Star HITLER'S HIDEAWAY: About a gloomy and inaccessible cavern high in the Bavarian Alps the local peasants have built up a tradition that there lies the spirit of Frederick Barbarossa, one of a long line of rulers who carried on the historic legend of Charlemagne in Austria. Perhaps when Herr Hitler chose the Kehlstein peak, near this place, for his alpine retreat, he had the old tradition of German-Austrian greatness in mind. But he lives in no cavern. Blasted out of the solid rock, his retreat is luxurious in the extreme and, as this artist's conception indicates, from it a 300-foot lift leads to the summit of the peak. Before this eyrie was built Herr Hitler lived in the Berghot, at Berchtesgaden.
