The ominous Castle Zbiroh and its Nazi past!

The beautiful and sleepy Castle Zbiroh lies situated amid vast forests in the Plzeň Region of the Czech Republic. It has a dark and mysterious past including links to the Knights Templar, the Freemasons and Hitler's SS.


During WW2 the invading German army took it over. They in turn were kicked out by the Nazi SS.


But why did they want it so much and why was it shrouded in secrecy?



Part of the reason was that the Nazis had found that the rock that the castle was built on greatly enhanced their radio listening abilities. But anecdotal evidence and research has found that they also used the Castle as a hiding place in the closing months of the war. Rumour has it that munitions, classified documents and gold were secreted within the castle and its mysterious well!


Some investigations have been made but there has been great concern that the well or any secret caverns were heavily mined by the Nazis.


Castle Zbiroh features in the political thriller See Glass by Ido Graf and it gives an alternate perspective on the war in Ukraine and the political situation in Europe, the USA and Russia. It is available on Amazon as a Kindle e-book, paperback or large-print hardback and as an Audible audiobook.


Read it and then question your understanding of what is actually going on in the world today!
