I actually went to the place when I first started working, but I'm not sure if I remember correctly.

Was it Benton, LA?

I mean, what about it?

It was bored through a mountain, made of copper, had Venetian mirrors...

I have no idea who gave it to him. I'm sure it was like an American or something

Shown in the photo below is the interior of the elevator. It is lined with polished brass and has round Venetian mirrors on the walls. On the right side of the photo, you can see one of the mirrors in which there is a reflection of two passengers who are exiting the elevator. When Hitler rode in this elevator, it had green leather-covered benches on three sides. Note that the bottom half of the walls are covered with green leather but the benches are now gone.

A dozen Austrians died building it too.

Herr Leder told us it was lined with gold, and they removed it so it couldn't be recovered by allied forces.
