Stone walls at Platterhof (Walker Hotel)

[JH]

When I was at the Platterhof in 1997, I noticed several stones used in the retaining wall next to the steps that led down the hill at the back which had dates carved in them, some of them centuries old. They appeared to be cornerstones from ancient buildings. Does anyone know if the stone used there came from other buildings in the area? Any other information on this?

Also, are there any web sites showing the current conditions at Obersalzberg and it's buildings and/or ruins?

Thanks
JH
