Adolf Hitlers Birthplace - Braunau am Inn

[@thomasbleming7539]

In 1977 I visited Branau am Inn with a couple of friends and we all took time to see this historic building where Der Fuehrer was born.

They should make it in to a museum and charge an entry fee. That would work in the government's favour to raise money and also for the public as a historical place of interest. You can't erase history.

gnrocks91 furthermore when you just try to ignore and erase history people will forget the reason why these terrible events happened in the first place and therefore risk repeating it.

@@rickylucas5104 exactly but sadly there will always be 1 person trying to erase and modify history

Completely agree. If history is erased, there's nothing to learn from. It's uncomfortable, but every country has an element of its history that shouldn't be repeated. What's important is that people learn never to replicate the wrongs of the past. Thanks for sharing this.

I agree with you 100%. Yes after all it is just a building, a building that people come to, to see as a reminder and perhaps even learn of what happened. If it is torn down it will help fade from memory that ugly part of time that should never, never be forgotten. Much of history through out the world is remembered and memorialized by structures and this should continue to be one of them. The Austrian Government has a duty to the world to preserve this as a place for people to come to and reflect on the past that should never be repeated.

The stone from Mauthausen is a reminder of the value of Hard Work.

Had I been, I'm not nor could ever be, its a 1000% hypothetical statement :) Harry S. Truman in 1945, it wouldn't be a preservation debate. In order to visit let alone walk the land within 100 miles of where this is today, would still require a heavy radiation suit w/ helmet and boots w/ cleats. Hiroshima would have looked like a bonfire by comparison.
