I regard to Hitler’s Eagle’s Nest being burned down: I have always found some of the most potent reminders of the Nazi regime and what it stood for in the surviving architecture of the period. It is most impactful when you visit a city like Berlin and there amongst the rest of the city you come to a building such as Haus am Werderschen Markt. You see how the building was meant to make the individual feel small and powerless against an almighty and eternal state government. You see the ideology that led to so many horrors crystallized in stone. Losing these artifacts of Nazism is like losing a text that we can read and help us to understand our history. No matter how good it might feel to tear down temples to past devils, they remind us as Faulkner put it: “The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” It is important to keep the past present with us. Because it is.
