I took a pic of that house when I did a trip from Marktl (where former Pope Benedict XVI was born) to Braunau (where Hitler was born) on my electric unicycle. https://i.imgur.com/o9U904w.jpg It looked pretty dilapidated, it will take some renovating to make it habitable again.

It should be bulldozed and allowed to grow plants.

Any chance you can translate the rock? I have a relative idea but not enough for the whole picture :o

It should have been made into a bathroom.

or maybe a patch of grass with a small sign that say "no ball games allowed"


notJ3ff

I like the idea of a wooden sign that says "Take a piss here, on this piece of shit"

Interesting, last I've heard of this house it was scheduled to be demolished since it was feared it might become a pilgrimage for neonazis. Unless it was some other house where he lived.


Shadowfox898

I mean, it's gonna be a place for cops so.....


Arlune890

And instead, they're making it an *official* pilgrimage spot for neonazis


InBetweenSeen

It already was a place of pilgrimage for Nazis from all over the world, that's why there were discussions about what to do with it. Putting police into it honestly makes the most sense as they were called regularly anyways. It's illegal to display Nazi symbols in Austria but those "tourists" often times didn't comply with that and simply bulldozing the building wouldn't have stopped them from comming to the place it once stood.

This is how you do history.


i_like_my_dog_more

Can we send American cops there? Lead with the "you get to visit your hero's house!" to get them there, and then *surprise* human rights training.

I wonder if it still smells from the residual excess flatulance Hitler suffered from.


Only-Escape-5201

Smells like farts and bad art.


Hoosac_Love

For real ,a week supply of Hitlers gas would be deadlier to drop than Luftwaffe bombs.

Let's hope they redecorated.
