War and Remembrance is a novel by Herman Wouk, published in 1978, which is the sequel to The Winds of War. This novel was adapted into a mini-series presented on American television in 1988. Wouk was the screenwriter as well as the author of the original book.

The Kehlstein was closed for more than a month for filming. The original furniture and interior was moved from the Platterhof Hotel where they were kept by US forces at the time. US Forces members and locals of Berchtesgaden were recruited as extras.

The story of Hitler's Eagle's Nest.
Sometimes referred to as "Teahouse" or "Teehaus". In fact the correct term was "D-Haus", short for "Diplomatischer Empfangshaus".
It was built as an extension of the Obersalzberg complex erected by the Nazis in the mountains above Berchtesgaden. The Kehlsteinhaus was intended as a 50th birthday present for Adolf Hitler to serve as a retreat for Hitler and place for him to entertain visiting dignitaries.
The Kehlsteinhaus was commissioned by Martin Bormann, with construction proceeding over a 13-month period. It was completed in the summer of 1938, prior to its formal presentation to Hitler on his 50th birthday on April 20, 1939. It is situated on a ridge at the top of the Kehlstein mountain 1,834 m reached by a 6.5 km long and 4 m wide road that cost 30 million RMs to build (about 150 million euros in 2007, adjusted in line with inflation).
