VIENNA: Austria presented an architectural plan on Tuesday (Jun 2) to turn the house where Adolf Hitler was born into a police station in the hope of "neutralising" the space and ensuring it does not attract neo-Nazis.

After decades of debate about what to do with the building in the town of Braunau am Inn on the German border, Austria carried out a compulsory purchase in 2017 and said last year it would be turned into police offices so that it "will never again evoke the memory of National Socialism".
