Īs of 2015, the location of Tannenberg sits within the Black Forest National Park. One building, which remained standing, was subsequently used to store fertilizer and other supplies by foresters. Most of the buildings were demolished during the German withdrawal from the Western Front in 1945. This is the only time it was known to have been used by Hitler. Hitler stayed at the Führerhauptquartier Tannenberg from 28 June to 5 July 1940, following the Fall of France, using it as a base from which to tour the fortresses of the Maginot Line. The site's designation, "Tannenberg", was from the Battle of Tannenberg during World War I. Built by the Organization Todt in the winter of 1939–1940, it has been described as a prototype for the Wolf's Lair. Tannenberg was constructed on Kniebis Mountain in the heart of the Black Forest on the grounds of an existing installation of Germany's western air defense zone near Freudenstadt. It was located near Freudenstadt and Hitler stayed there for a week in 1940 while inspecting the fortresses that formed the Maginot Line.
