A personal globe belonging to German dictator Adolf Hitler has been sold for USD 65,000 at an auction in the US.

The personal terrestrial globe, a unique relic, was taken as a souvenir from Hitler’s residence at Berchtesgaden in Germany on May 10, 1945 by John Barsamian, an American soldier at the end of the World War II.

The globe is mounted on a wood base with a metal half-meridian attached at the north and south poles, and stands 18 inches high in all, with a diameter at the equator of over 12 inches, according to Live Auctioneers in the US.

The globe is marked entirely in German. Notably, the borders of Germany include the portion of Poland allotted to them under the German-Soviet Frontier Treaty of 1939, as well as Austria and the Czech Sudetenland, the auction house said.
