I don't know if that is classified as cheating either, but looks like you got it nevertheless.

Hmmm ... cryptic... Adler being German for Eagle... is it anything to do with The Eagles Nest situated near the town of Berchtesgaden in Bavaria, not far from the Austrian border ??

It certainly does The allies called it Eagles Nest but the Germans never used that name. The building is also often called "Hitler's Tea House", but this is a misnomer. Hitler did not treat the Kehlsteinhaus as a tea house, and the location he visited daily for afternoon tea was actually the Mooslahnerkopf Teehaus
I like me WWII stuff

This grey rock in the wood is a tidal island and was possibly the site of a monastery since the 8th century. It also has a castle.
