Adolf Hitler Holocaust: Austrian Government Determined To Take Down Nazi-House, Owner Won't Sell

Adolf Hitler and the horrors of his regime motivated the Austrian Government to draft a bill that will finally allow them to take full possession of a house associated with him.  Interior Minister Wolfgang Sobotka said that it is his vision to tear down the house.

Hitler is known as the main person responsible for the Holocaust. He is a German politician who led the Nazi Party from 1933 to 1945. He initiated World War II in Europe and invaded Poland in September 1939.

Adolf Hitler's admirers are believed to reside in the house. CBS News reported that an interior ministry spokesman said that their government is determined to get the ownership as a way of preventing the Nazi dictator aim. However, the draft has to be approved by a majority of the parliament.

Austrian Government's plans are transform the property into a museum reflecting the Nazi leader Hitler and the Holocaust. Before the cabinet meeting, BBC News reported. The Austrian Government's proposal stated that the owner Gerlinde Pommer will be paid similarly with cases of demolished houses for railway projects.

Pommer, however, has consistently refused the offer from the government. She has owned the house since 1977. The Austrian Government has rented the house for more than four decades with $5,300 as monthly payment.

The Hitler house is found in the town of Braunau am Inn on the German border. One of the evidence that connects the house's past is a stone that has an inscription that reads "For peace, freedom, and democracy. Never again fascism. Millions of dead remind us." Hitler's name cannot be seen in any part of the stone, though.

"Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who do not want to fight in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live" is one of the most famous Hitler quotes. In his younger years, his father Alois Hitler, disapproved his interest in fine arts and German nationalism. Hitler biography stories reveal that he committed suicide together with his wife Eva Braun on April 30, 1945, in his Berlin bunker.
