Location
Walim is located in the north-western part of the Sowie Mountains. This region bore witness to a secret project, by Adolf Hitler, whose remnants tempt history buffs to this very day.

Historical background
In 1943, under the direct orders of Hitler, works of a huge level and enormous scale were initiated, under the codename Riese (the giant). They were not fully realised, and the nature of their exact intention, remains shrouded in a fog of mystery. Were they to be a facility for manufacturing or experiments? Or the main quarters of an underground command post?

Today
Thanks to the establishment in Walim of underground tourist trails, we are able to see the unimaginable and impossible scale of these works. The digging of these many kilometres of tunnel - through solid rock - claimed the lives of thousands of human beings.
