Original subtitles

male narrator: Bob Baer,

a 21-year CIA veteran and one of the most respected

intelligence minds in the world,

has spent the last year investigating the fate

of Adolf Hitler at the end of World War II.

The moment I started looking into this case,

it didn't add up.

We have no forensic evidence

that he died in that bunker.

Ignorance is bliss.

The public does not want to believe

that we lost Adolf Hitler.

Look at that.

14,621 files.

It's incredible.

I mean, every intelligence agency in the world

is looking at this.

narrator: Now, with unprecedented access

to over 14,000 declassified documents

from around the world,

Bob has deployed a team of world-renowned experts

armed with the most cutting-edge technology

to continue his international investigation.

We are completely in unchartered waters.

For the first time, we are opening up these files

and putting them all together.

I want to get to the bottom of this.

In fact, I'm gonna get to the bottom of this.

In the context of looking for Hitler's escape route,

we are now getting into specifics for the first time.

A certain ex-Luftwaffe pilot, Captain Baumgart,

swore under oath that he flew Hitler

from Berlin on 29 April 1945.

Maybe there really is a plan B,

a plan C, and a plan D that we don't know about.

You have here the Fuehrerbunker.

Just 20 to 25 meters away,

I found an exit

very close to the bunker.

Now Hitler's got another way out.

A plane which was piloted by Hanna Reitsch

flew out of Berlin from the Brandenburg Gate.

It looks like it was a runway.

It was a makeshift runway.

Hanna Reitsch, she's able to fly a plane

in and out of here on April 28th.

Allegedly, on April 29th,

Baumgart flies Hitler out of here.

But what about these lampposts?

How you gonna get wings of an airplane down here?

We generate a 360-degree spherical image.

You can see everything.

Look what they've got here.

You're actually talking about

a defensible militarized zone.

Misiones, Argentina.

That is huge.

Why is this in the middle of the jungle?

The person that is using this

is protected by the people that are using that.

I just think Misiones,

it's just, like, bizarre.

I mean, who was living up there?

And for what reason?

And what were they protecting?

narrator: Bob Baer

and war crimes investigator Dr. John Cencich

are overseeing a dual-pronged investigation

while the European team investigates

a reported escape by Hitler from Berlin

the day before he was believed dead.

Bob and John focus in on the South American leg

of their investigation.

In the jungles of Misiones, Argentina,

they have uncovered four mysterious structures

in the same area

that a declassified Argentinian document

reports the presence of a Nazi militarized outpost.

We have found there a compound

that could have protected somebody of Hitler's stature.

I've never seen anything like this.

You've got the buildings,

all these Nazi artifacts.

You've got a barracks.

You've got military bullets.

And then you've got china.

I mean, who takes china into the middle of the jungle?

For what reason?

I want somebody to explain to me what this compound was

and why those people inside the compound

had to set up a military base.

For whom?

If we can find more evidence of structures

or the ability to defend this high-value target,

that means that this is some sort

of Nazi military compound.

I agree.

If, in fact, it was a compound,

there's stuff to be dug up.

We keep finding stuff, but we're not finding answers.

We're just finding more questions.

narrator: U.S. Army Special Forces Tim Kennedy,

along with archaeologists Daniel Schávelzon

and Alasdair Brooks, investigate the dense jungle

surrounding building number four,

which appears to have been a military barracks

less than a mile from the other three

residential structures.

When you're trying to paint a comprehensive picture

of what a military compound would look like in a jungle,

you're looking for observation posts,

structures, defensive positions.

This is way more than a hideout in the jungle.

But if this is a military outpost,

I have to see a lot more.

Daniel, Tim!

Hey. What'd you find?

If we come up here, we've got these few loose rocks.

If we follow it through, this isn't a natural formation.

Yeah, you're right.

That's kind of weird.

It's very clear it's a manmade feature.

It's a wall in a straight line.

Wow.

The construction technique for these walls

is fairly basic.

It's just rocks laying on top of each other.

But you can see those levels building up.

They are clearly artificial.

A certain level of planning and intent

seems to have gone into this stone wall.

It looks like it's making use

of natural features in the landscape.

And it seems to be going up

to another natural feature up there.

Whether it goes any further than that

is an open question right now.

All right, I'm gonna go right.

We'll make this our center point for right now

and our working area.

Yes.

To build something like this wall

in the middle of the jungle,

where there's no one for miles,

that was by design, and that was for a reason.

Has to serve a purpose.

I want to find out the purpose.

Yeah, we got something over here for sure.

Another one.

This is a second wall.

Powerfully constructed,

strategically located.

Got another wall down there?

Oh, man.

Oh, this is absolutely connected.

Another wall for sure.

damn.

This is legit.

Hey, guys!

Have something?

Yeah, there's a full rock face right here.

Looks like you have a couple of lines of stone here,

and that's definitely artificial again.

What we're seeing here

is a much more impressive sequence

than the wall we started with.

This is much higher

and then has flat, terraced levels

rising down from where the two of you are standing.

narrator: The team has discovered

a terrace-like structure,

two tiers of paved ground

reinforced by manmade stone walls

built into the hillside.

Do you have any idea what the terraces are for?

So the flat ground--

you can't have troops running back and forth,

tripping and breaking their necks.

You can't set up machine guns.

You can't fight off of uneven ground.

You want every single advantage.

You want them to have the disadvantage

of coming up a hill.

You want to be at the top of the hill.

If you're coming up and you get to this,

this is gonna slow you down for a second.

That is long enough for you to die.

This is them setting themselves up for success.

This terrace is in a very well-made fighting position.

It's made by somebody that knows what they're doing,

somebody that has built battle positions before,

and it screams military.

What is that thing?

You see that?

Gentlemen.

- Yes. - Yeah.

I got something.

Come up here. Check this out.

Yes.

Oh!

Holy [bleep].

What is this?

Even though there's not much left,

you can see where the door and the posts went

from the framework.

Yes.

Still have a little bit

of the entrance threshold here as well.

This is a standalone building

that serves a functional purpose.

We just don't know what that is yet.

It's one room, you know, with two doors

and a window.

We know what this building's not.

This building is not

for somebody to live.

No restroom, no kitchen, no nothing.

What the hell is this thing?

Guard shack?

That's what it feels like.

Where it's situated, you have obvious layers

of protective defensive structures

through the jungle.

These segments of the wall that we can find

probably formed an entire perimeter

around the original structures--

buildings one, two, and three-- at the center.

This feels like another layer of defense.

This is the exact spot

I would have put a guard shack.

This very well could be where you're gonna be

launching patrols from,

do all the things that you would have to do

to create another layer of protection

for who was behind it.

This is amazing technology, you know?

There's the Brandenburg Gate.

narrator: While the South American team

continues to investigate

the potential Nazi military compound in Argentina,

Bob and John review the 3D laser scans from Berlin

to determine if the avenue

extending from the Brandenburg Gate

could be the location where a declassified MI6 file

reports Luftwaffe pilot Peter Baumgart

flew Hitler from Berlin

the day before he was believed dead.

Runway length: 6,033 feet.

That's a lot of feet for a short takeoff/landing.

Just a little over a mile.

Yeah, I mean, it's more than you need.

Let's look at the width. 93 feet.

Except let's not forget that the lampposts

had been removed.

That gives us 144 feet.

144 feet, which you could land a C-130.

Almost any plane.

A DC-3 could have got out of there

on this particular makeshift runway.

So, really, there isn't any question in my mind

that Baumgart could have gotten out of Berlin.

I mean, it's long enough. It's wide enough.

It works.

There's no other explanation other than

they were turning this into a makeshift runway.

Hanna Reitsch used it on the 28th,

makes it out successfully-- a test run, if you like.

The 29th, Baumgart says he flew Hitler out,

and Hitler supposedly dies on the 30th.

The detail is all coming together

to paint a picture of Hitler's possible escape

like we've never seen before, ever.

All of this fits together.

But I think we really have an issue.

According to this MI6 file,

Baumgart flew a Messerschmitt, an Me-108.

It had a range of about 600 or 700 miles.

They're not long-distance planes.

These types of aircraft being used at this makeshift runway,

no way could they have made it to Spain.

It's 2,000 miles away.

Earlier in the investigation,

we determined that one of the very likely routes

out of Berlin would have been to Spain.

We have an FBI document, and it states here,

"Hitler refused to involve Spain in the war,

"because he has a promise of sanctuary there

when Germany is defeated."

There's one man that Hitler could go to for salvation:

to leader of Spain, the dictator Franco.

If Hitler's fleeing Berlin, it's certainly possible

that he would have gone to Spain.

But it's most likely that he had an intermediate stop

on one of the smaller aircraft.

And where would you go this late in the game?

Well, let's dig into this database

and see exactly what we have on Baumgart

and where he could have actually gone.

There we go.

The reporting agency is MI6.

This is a report from 18 December 1947.

"Baumgart arrived at Berlin on 28 March 1945.

"In April, he was ordered to convey to Denmark

"a very high official, and there was reason to believe

that the person in question must have been Hitler himself."

The plot thickens.

Denmark makes a lot of sense.

It's not like the Allies are landing on the beaches there.

They're coming through France,

and the Russians are coming across Germany.

So there's no battle going on in Denmark at the time.

Until May 5th, Denmark was still a Nazi stronghold.

I mean, you could land an airplane there.

From Berlin to the heart of Denmark

is just a hair short of 300 miles.

That is a short flight

with a fast military airplane.

We need to get the team into Denmark.

We know Nazi infrastructure's obviously in Germany

and in other countries,

but we really need to be able to zero in on Denmark

to see what type of Nazi infrastructures were there.

It's still something that needs to be answered.

Yeah, let's get to Denmark,

see if it was a stopping point.

I'll bet we find something.

If you're on the run,

you need a network, don't you?

You absolutely need a network,

and a guy like Hitler, of course, at that point,

he's the most wanted man in the world,

so he's only gonna trust a very few people.

narrator: Lenny DePaul,

former U.S. Marshal commander,

is joined by James Holland, world-renowned historian

and expert on Nazis during World War II.

An investigation like this,

you simply can't look at it

from a 21st-century perspective.

I've been studying this for many years,

trying to get into the head of Adolf Hitler

and to the Nazi elite.

You need that historical context.

narrator: To determine the extent

of the Nazi presence in Denmark

that could have been at Hitler's disposal

at the end of the war, the team is heading

to a little-known German military installation

along the Danish coast.

If this was Adolf Hitler's exact plan of escape,

to head north to Denmark, he would have set the table.

He would have had the right infrastructure,

the right people in place.

So I'm gonna shake a lot of trees

and see what falls out of them around here.

Well, here we are.

Oh, that's him.

Hello? - Christian?

- Christian. - Right, right.

- Nice to meet you. - Yeah, and you.

Good to see you. - Nice to meet you.

narrator: Christian Ringskof, the head curator of the site,

is granting the team unprecedented access

to a series of bunkers used by the Nazis

during their occupation of Denmark.

God, Lenny, look at that.

Phew. Wow.

It's incredible, isn't it?

When was this place built, Christian?

narrator: At the end of World War II,

these bunkers were buried out of sight

under 33 feet of sand.

But in 2008, a massive storm unearthed them,

allowing access for the first time since 1945.

So, suddenly, you can get in here.

They dropped everything and went home.

- Yeah. - Can we take a look?

Have a look at the width of these walls, Lenny.

Jeez Louise.

Solid concrete.

- Six feet. - Six feet.

Typical German fashion, huh?

Thick concrete walls.

I mean, look at it. It's so solid.

Oh, man.

Look at this.

narrator: The team is granted access

to artifacts that were left behind

when the Nazi troops fled this area

at the end of the war.

These objects were entombed in this bunker

for nearly 70 years.

This is the sort of thing that makes me very happy, Lenny.

Ooh, look at that. German Luger, right?

Yeah, that's a German Luger.

This is really interesting,

because your common garden troops

are not gonna be carrying a Luger.

This is kind of elite stuff.

It's not the sort of kit

that you're gonna be handing out to recruits.

That suggests that you've got some troops in the area

who kind of know what they're about.

Oh, really?

In this-- in this position.

So there's a radar here.

Really?

There's a whole level of sophistication

to support clandestine operations.

Something big was going on here.

Look at this room in here.

- It's a big one. - Look at this.

- Yeah. - What went on in here?

Luftwaffe's here, the German air force.

This is like some sort of a command post

or a control center?

What aircraft are we talking about here?

Night fighters.

narrator: Operating from as far north

as the Danish coast, the Nazi night fighters were

one of the most elite squadrons

of Hitler's Luftwaffe air force.

Utilizing experimental forms

of radar, avionics, and weaponry,

they executed missions in the dead of night,

wreaking havoc on Allied targets.

Well, the interesting thing, Lenny, about this place

is that anyone who's working here

is doing so under, you know, high security.

You know, you're not allowed to breathe a word of this.

In other words, these are people that can keep a secret.

These are people you can trust.

If I was Hitler and if I was trying to get out,

I would want to come to Denmark.

It's the one place where the Germans are still occupying,

that they've got all the infrastructure

that you could possibly want.

You've got the secure bunkers,

you've got the radar system,

and you've got troops.

So Denmark is about as good a place

as you can hope to go to, as any in the world.

What I really find interesting about Misiones

is, of course, we have this fifth structure here

that's consistent with the others.

narrator: While the European team

continues to investigate Denmark,

Bob and John review the findings

from the jungles of Misiones, Argentina,

which could be home to a Nazi militarized compound,

as reported by a declassified Argentinian document.

It is not consistent with a civilian structure.

This is out in the middle of the jungle.

These people were prepared for an attack of some sort.

Agreed.

And here I have the discoveries

that we found from our investigative efforts.

There's a wall that's encircling the compound.

You have the guard shack,

and you also have building number four.

It's a two-story structure

that looks like it could have been used

to house soldiers or security forces.

You know, the patterns,

it does look like some sort of outer perimeter.

What's really critical here is building one.

This is the one with the opulent residence.

This is the epicenter.

Then everything else surrounds that.

It's clear to me this was some sort of compound.

Now, look at this, this right here.

It's strange.

Here's the water, and this is a point that's not protected.

This is the proverbial Achilles heel.

Anybody that knows anything about fortifying

any type of military compound

would not leave this open right here.

This is pretty conspicuous.

Yeah.

If I was seeking to capture whoever was in building one,

there's only one place I would come in,

and that's the small inlet shaped just like a heel.

And there appears to be a straight shot from the inlet

directly to building number one.

You get a Zodiac there on the shore

and be up at building one without a protection

in two minutes.

You simply don't take your chances

hoping that nobody's going to come up out of the water.

You have to look at all the labor

that went into this compound.

We're talking millions of dollars to build this place.

And if you're going to put that kind of money into it

and put military arms into it,

you're going to find a way to defend the whole thing.

We need to get our team on the ground here

and to find out what else is here or may have been there

that would have offered more protection

for building number one.

Yeah, we have to complete the picture here.

Movement of a high-value target in this area,

you can't find a better place on the planet to do it

than right here.

narrator: Tim Kennedy, Alasdair Brooks,

and Daniel Schávelzon

navigate the waters of the Paraná River,

which runs along the Misiones compound.

So I have our point of interest plotted on the GPS

in between these cliffs

right at the water's edge.

These cliffs are certainly spectacular.

They're visually stunning, absolutely,

but as a climber, those are treacherous.

Even if you're not carrying that much equipment,

these are a barrier.

Right around this bend is that spot.

So this is it.

So we have a cliff face here, another cliff here,

and this somewhat lower level when you look at it.

That's some of the densest jungle we've seen so far.

There could be someone

standing one foot in that vegetation,

and we couldn't see them.

You could have artillery sitting there,

and we couldn't see it.

You could have a house in there,

and you couldn't see it.

There arehouses in there, and we can't see them.

Absolutely true.

It's difficult for us to get close.

Yeah, there's a bunch of logs and tree stumps

that are in there too.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

You see that?

Hey, can we flip back around?

Do you think you saw something?

There is definitely a different color

from the vegetation in the background.

I saw something kind of tan.

Something over here?

Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep. Right there.

Is that all one big rock?

It is.

If this is your access point

and they're building fortifications

that prevent your access, this is strategic.

We got to see what that is.

Oh, it's cold.

Be careful.

That is way bigger than I thought.

And it's thick enough.

It would stop bullets.

It would stop a grenade.

Look at this.

That's timber.

It's not a tree.

This might be the--like, the edge of a foundation

to a structure right here.

They could have built it right into this wall.

It would have had overhead cover.

Use some of the vegetation as camouflage,

pile it up on top of this.

This is completely bullet-proof

at the one point that you have access to the shore.

Wait. What is this?

This, you cannot miss.

That is a perfect right angle.

These are chisel marks too.

What the--

You could shoot straight across this.

There's no possible way

that somebody could get across this body of water alive.

This is going to give you an elevated position

to rain down hell.

We have this infrastructure

along the coast of Denmark.

Obviously, elite German Nazi forces were there.

Which would have been loyal to Hitler.

Definitely the ability to protect Hitler.

Yeah, I agree.

narrator: Bob and John discuss the European leg

of their investigation, which is focusing

on Hitler's possible flight to Denmark

the day before he was believed dead,

as reported by a declassified MI6 file.

The question is, if Baumgart or any other pilot

were to come into Denmark, where's the airstrip?

Yeah, I agree.

Let's dig into the database to see what we can find.

Yeah, let's see what we come up with.

Nuremburg trial, 15 March 1948.

Interrogation of Friedrich von Angelotty-Mackensen.

Yeah, he was a major in the SS.

"You saw Hitler and several comrades in May 1945."

His answer: "Yes."

"Who were his comrades?"

"I only know that in one of the planes in which Hitler was,

"that this plane was being flown or piloted

by a certain Captain Baumgart."

Voila.

"Where did you see them?"

"In Tonder."

Where's Tonder?

I've never heard of it.

There we go.

Right there, at the German border.

Yeah, right on the German border.

So basically, if this SS major was right,

he flies from Berlin.

As soon as he gets across the border into Denmark,

which is still Nazi occupied-- and puts down there.

Here's a guy whose life was in the balance,

and in the middle of the questioning,

he says he saw Hitler in Tonder.

I think that's huge.

"Hitler."

"Tonder."

"Denmark."

There we go.

Luftwaffe airfields from 1935 to '45 in Denmark.

The landing ground of southwest Denmark.

It was a World War I German airship station.

It was abandoned after the First World War.

It was listed in World War II German documents

as an available landing ground.

It's a clandestine airport.

It's what we were looking for.

It's utterly remarkable.

This isn't like a known place, you know?

If he said, "Oh, I saw Hitler at Copenhagen Airport,"

that's sort of a giveaway.

But he's talking about a base

that was unknown to most people,

probably to very few people.

It had been a World War I base

that it was possible to still land in there.

Well, it had to be, because he was there.

Yeah.

The question is, one,

could you put an airplane down that's flown from Berlin?

Two, what do you do from there?

We need to get the team in there to look at that

to see how it could have been used in late April 1945.

Let's get into Tonder.

Well, rumors.

There's rumors.

You know what rumors are, right?

Yeah, yeah.

But you know what they say: where there's smoke...

We'll find a fire.

narrator: Lenny DePaul and James Holland

head for the location of the Tonder airfield

in search of evidence

that Hitler could have used this site

as a transit point to Spain.

- Here we go. - Oh, here it is right here.

Yeah.

All right, let's go in here.

Looks like a hangar.

Certainly could have accommodated an airplane.

Massive, massive building.

Yo! - Hello!

- I'm Lenny. - Anders.

Anders, nice to meet you.

narrator: The team makes contact with Anders Jacobsen,

an expert on Nazi Luftwaffe activities in Denmark.

What is this?

It was originally builtin 1914

to protect the German imperial navy airship base here.

What about the runway?

The airstrip right here,

in both directions.

Really? Just right in front of us?

- Yes. - This way?

- Yes. - Is there any remnants

of a tarmac or pavement or anything?

No, no.

There was no tarmac or anything, no concrete.

It was grass.

- They landed on grass. - They landed on grass.

And what kind of troops would have been here?

We have reports of Luftwaffe personnel being here.

In total clandestine conditions, you could land here.

There would be no one here

except those people that you would like to be here.

This was top secret at that time.

It wasn't a concrete runway or anything,

but it's still in German hands.

It's got all the facilities you could need.

It's not on the enemy radar at all.

You know, that has a lot to be said for it.

How long was the runway? Any idea?

It would have been about 1,000 times, 1,000 meters.

So... - Not quite a mile.

Yeah.

This is pretty big.

But if these trees did exist,

you're certainly not going to get a big airplane in here.

Maybe a smaller one,

but how's anybody going to get out of here

on a bigger aircraft and make his way all the way to Spain?

That discounts it completely.

What if these trees weren't here?

If there was nothing there, boom,

perfect spot to land and take off.

But if those trees were standing 70 years ago, we're in trouble.

This one here looks good.

I'm going to take a sample of this tree

and make a determination

on how long this tree's been standing here.

Got to get in there as deep as I can,

so at least six inches, anyway.

narrator: Lenny uses an incremental borer,

a highly specialized instrument

that acquires a sample from deep within a tree's core

that will allow experts to determine the age

of these trees down to the month.

That's what I'm looking for right there.

There's my sample.

We're talking about a 70-year-old cold case here.

The smallest bit of evidence,

like this tree sample that I just took,

stands in the way between me knowing

whether or not Hitler could have flown out of here

on a big aircraft.

These results could be what makes or breaks the case.

This manmade structure--

and you can see where the rock is cut here--

there's no other explanation for that

except to defend this group of buildings.

narrator: Bob Baer and John Cencich

review the findings from the team in Misiones, Argentina.

I mean, I'll go out on a limb.

And considering what we found, this was a Nazi compound.

You've got weapons, bullets,

guard houses, defensible perimeter.

It was a Nazi military zone,

and it was protecting one person who was very important.

Whoever was there didn't feel comfortable

wandering around South America.

It had to be somebody really damn important.

The problem is, the only thing we have

connecting Hitler with this is the stomach medicine.

It's a potential connection.

Hitler has a serious ailment,

and stockpiles of medicine for that type of problem

are found in this building in Misiones.

I think the stomach medicine is important,

but it's tenuous.

I like the stomach medicine,

but it's really just highly speculative.

I mean, that's not going to convince me

at the end of the day.

I want something more.

Let's not forget that within 50 miles,

there are several small towns.

From my perspective, that's the next logical place

to take this investigation, is to find out

whether or not there are people still alive

or people alive that have been told from others

what was going on at this location.

Yeah, I'd be shocked if people in that area

didn't know something about this compound.

Someone is going to have something to say

that's going to add another piece

that may put us closer to putting Hitler here.

Sounds like a plan.

Let's walk across and talk to that guy right there.

narrator: Tim Kennedy makes his way

through the small towns

that make up the Misiones province,

50 miles from the Nazi militarized compound

in the jungle.

No, no, no, no.

So we'll have to find somebody to talk to.

narrator: Tim is joined

by world-renowned investigative journalist Gerrard Williams

and a local translator.

To try and track down the escape of Adolf Hitler

70 years after it happened

is going to be difficult for anybody.

I'm trying to find German families

that lived in this area for a really, really long time.

No. - No?

- Okay, bueno. - Thank you.

To think that he escaped

and we are still being lied to 70 years on

makes me very, very angry and always will do.

So we follow as many leads as we can,

every single thing that we come up against.

We're trying to find

if there's any rich German families.

No, no, no, no.

The ones that look like they'd know something

are the guys that never want to talk.

Yeah.

There's a recurring theme here.

- Hmm. - Everywhere.

To this day,

the power of the Nazi idea still exists here.

People are still tight-lipped, close-mouthed

about anything associated with the Nazis.

- Buenas tardes. - Buenas tardes, chicos.

My friend and I are trying to find families here in the area,

specifically German families

that have lived here a long time.

He says it could be a little dangerous, actually,

to talk about it in this area.

After the war or before the war?

It's after the war.

- After the war. - I'm a journalist--

Okay, he tells us that there actually is one person

who might could help us out.

Okay, he's called Anibel Silvero.

Silvero.

He's from here, yeah,

and he knows a lot of what happened about Nazis.

It's obvious the city holds a seriously dark secret.

There are many, many German families here

that are hiding something.

But you only do that for one reason:

because they're still scared.

There is still a huge amount more

to be discovered in Misiones.

And that's what we're going to do.

We'll get to the bottom of it.

We're a long way from a main road, Tim.

Yeah.

narrator: In the outskirts of Misiones, Argentina,

Tim Kennedy and Gerrard Williams

prepare to make contact with a local man

who is rumored to have information

about Nazi activities in the area.

Honestly, I'm not totally comfortable

meeting someone we haven't vetted in the--

On a dirt road in the middle of the forest in Argentina?

After we've been walking around town

asking about Nazis.

narrator: Their contact

has requested to meet the team at night,

due to the sensitivity of his information.

I got your back.

- Hola, señor. - Hola.

- Hola, hola. - Buenas noches.

- Buenas noches. - Geraldo.

Why are we here?

Why here, out in the forest, in the middle of nowhere?

It's really close. He said you need to come and see it.

What the hell is this, in the middle of the forest?

That's amazing.

What is this place?

The house was built in the '40s,

and this was the most wealthy family in the area.

This family had meetings here in this house under a Nazi flag.

Rumors actually say

that they also were heiling before going in.

Is it safe to go inside? Can we go and walk around?

Okay.

What the hell?

Gerrard.

The tile in here?

Yeah?

I've seen it before.

Where?

In a military compound off the Paraná river.

The same style, Tim? The same color, what?

The pattern, the layout.

They either had the same designer,

the same architect, the same supplier,

or all of the above.

Well, I'd say it's been deserted a while.

Why is this house derelict?

Where did the Bremers go?

Could this house be a safe house?

Could this simply be a place where intelligence was gathered?

We don't really know at this stage.

Can you ask Anibel--

we need names for people that we can go and talk to.

Can he supply us with any?

- Goering? - Goering.

The grand-niece of Hermann Goering.

Hermann Goering, the head of the Luftwaffe,

his great-niece is living in Misiones?

Coincidences like this don't exist.

It's not a coincidence. How can it be?

Goering obviously rings immediate alarm bells

to anybody who studied the Third Reich.

Goering is a founding member of the Nazi party,

and in the event of Hitler's death,

it was Goering who was to become Fuehrer.

To find a relative of that man living in Argentina,

in Misiones, is amazing.

We have to talk to her.

Yeah, completely.

This is what happens when you dig in really deeply.

We could be on the verge of finally finding the truth.

narrator: Next time on "Hunting Hitler"...

Holy [bleep]. This just got real.

Where did Margarita find all this?

- Hidden behind a wall. - Sí, mira.

Behind a wall? Why?

What are they trying to hide?

Look at the damage on that, Mike!

- Bormann? - Bormann.

Martin Bormann is meant to be dead.

It's the smoking gun

I'd spent the last 12 years of my life looking for.
