  • Adolf Hitler had to be born somewhere, and Branau is that "somewhere". I suppose the people of this town would rather forget that fact. Can you blame them?
  • I have heard that "One must accept that one's whole purpose in life may be to serve as a horrible example to others". Let us hope that the lesson herr Hitler taught the world may never be forgotten.
