Hitler came here often during the war (after all he wasn't that far away, having spent most of the war in his hideout (the Wolf's Lair) in northern Poland. He used the main hall to recruit Hitler Youth at gala rallies.But the Russians bombarded the castle almost to ruins as they made their way toward Berlin, January 1945...the pictures of Malbork are of a rebuilt version, very little of which was left standing.
