And this façade should be reworked in such a manner that it no longer reminds people of the pictures of 1945 anymore.

STORYLINE: The Austrian interior ministry on Thursday granted reporters access to Adolf Hitler’s birth house before construction work to remodel the building began in earnest. From 2026 onwards the building will house the local police station of Braunau in western Austria. While archaeologists are still in the process of excavating the backyard and the interior of the building, concept drawings already give an idea of the future look of site. “Our approach was to take a hint from the history of the building, that it used to be two houses with side-floors and ridged roofs in the 17th century,” architect Stefan Marte, whose concept won the competition, said. The reimagined front of the building will no longer look like the facelift the National Socialists gave the house in the waning years of the Third Reich. Braunau Mayor Johannes Waidbacher was not concerned about possible unwelcome visits from Hitler admirers. The town has learned to deal with such occurrences, he said “It is a historical fact that Hitler was born in Braunau and it’s going to stay one.(…) No matter what the building will be used for – you can’t avoid that,” he added. The inside of the house still shows signs of several hundred years of habitation. Important details will either be preserved or cut out of the walls to be archived. Construction work is scheduled to begin in 2024.
