Critics say controversial plans will fulfil dictator’s wish for building to become district authority offices
The redesign of the house where Adolf Hitler was born will go ahead as planned, Austria’s interior ministry has said, after a documentary aired new claims about the late Nazi dictator’s wishes for it.
After years of legal wrangling, the government decided to turn the house in the northern town of Braunau, where Hitler was born in 1889, into a police station with a human rights training centre. Work will begin on 2 October.
