Commander of the Obersalzberg , SS-Obersturmbannführer Bernhard Frank arrested Hermann Göring on April 25 1945 under orders from Adolf Hitler who was irate at Göring's attempt to promote himself above the Führer. He placed Göring under House Arrest but ignored later orders to execute the Reichsmarshall . Frank was reportedly one of the few SS officers inducted into the rites at Wewelsburg Castle , and after the war claimed that he had arranged the eventual surrender of Berchtesgaden to prevent needless damage to the structure. He later wrote a 144-page book entitled ''Hitler, Göring and the Obersalzberg'' |
