German police arrested a suspect after a fire damaged Adolf Hitler's former mountain retreat in Bavaria, with 200 firefighters battling the blaze at an altitude of 1,834 metres.
A 33-year-old man was detained following the fire at the Kehlsteinhaus, which was partially destroyed. Authorities suspect arson, with investigators examining a motorcyclist encountered on the scene.
The fire, which broke out on Friday, prompted an emergency operation involving multiple agencies. The building, a symbol of Nazi Germany's legacy, remains under investigation as police continue to examine the cause and potential motives.
The suspect, linked to the area but not residing there, is being assessed for possible mental health issues. Authorities have not ruled out political motives but emphasize no other individuals are involved in the incident.
