Hitler’s Birthplace Now a Police Station | Europe News

The building where Hitler was born is now a police station, stripped of all Nazi-era symbols in a bold effort to erase its dark past and prevent neo-Nazi pilgrimages. Though Hitler only lived there briefly in 1889, the Nazis later turned it into a museum to glorify him. Now, only a single rock from Mauthausen bearing “Never again fascism” remains—a move critics say is insufficient, arguing Austria should confront, not conceal, its history. Locals mostly back the police station plan, hoping a new purpose will bury the old one, even if neo-Nazis still find ways to visit.
