The house Nazi leader Adolf Hitler was born in is to be demolished by Austrian authorities. Opinion has been divided over what to do with the former guesthouse. While authorities feared it could become an important point for neo-Nazis and should therefore be torn down, others argued it ought to remain, but with a different use. Adolf Hitler was a German politician who was the leader of the Nazi Party, Chancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945, and Führer of Nazi Germany from 1934 to 1945.
