Austria Considers Forced Sale Of Hitler House

BRAUNAU AM INN, AUSTRIA - JANUARY 15: (EDITORS NOTE: This image was created with a variable plane focus lens) A general view of the house where Adolf Hitler spent his early childhood on January 15, 2015 in Braunau am Inn, Austria. The Austrian government is reportedly considering forcing the current owner, an elderly woman whose name has not been published, to sell the house to the state after she has repeatedly refused to allow renovations. The government has rented the house, which dates back to the Renaissance and stands under cultural protection, in previous years and made it available for charitable causes in an effort to prevent its misuse by people seeking to glorify its Nazi link.
