This is exactly what it looks like. This is an original piece of wooden beam from Adolf Hitler’s mountainside guest house at Obersalzbert, near the town of Berchtesgaden, Germany. It measures 10 inches (254mm) long, 4 inches (101mm) wide, and 3 inches (76.2mm) tall. On the top is a certification letter, with photos, from a USAF Major CC. Blanchard. This is an excellent conversation piece.
