An epilogue to a case that has made headlines in Austria for 20 years now. The homeland of Adolf Hitler will meet “police station and human rights training center“, reported on Wednesday, May 24, the Ministry of the Interior. According to local media, work will begin this autumn and last two to three years. The 800-square-meter building is located in the center of Braunau am Inn, at the address of the German border, in particular , will be strengthened with a new roof and will be extended. The bill will amount to several million euros. A large amount, but manageable: the government wants “neutralize“This is a building with a cumbersome past.
“The best thing you can do to neutralize” the place
The authorities also fought a lengthy legal battle over the ownership of this house in the north of the country in order to prevent the place where Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1889 and where he lived for five years from becoming a place of neo-Nazi pilgrimage. Thus, several hypotheses for the future building were considered, in particular a radical transformation of its architecture. Demolition was ruled out as it would be perceived”as ignoring the historical responsibility of Austria in Nazism“, – emphasized the Ministry of Internal Affairs on Wednesday.

After a long procedure, Austria finally became the owner of this house in 2019, having lived in it as a tenant for over 40 years. An expropriation was to be initiated against the owner.
Austria, annexed by Germany in 1938, has long had a difficult relationship with its past. After World War II, successive governments presented it as “the first victim of Nazism”, denying the complicity of many Austrians in the crimes of the Third Reich. A critical eye began to emerge in the mid-1980s.
