AUSTRIA-HITLER'S DOSS HOUSE


The recent shelter and the former hostel known as ''Hitler's Doss House'' at 25-27 Meldemann street in Vienna was closed, 05 November 2003. At the beginning of the 20th century the hostel was one of the most advanced social institutions in the Habsburg capital supported by the Rotschild family. Adolf Hitler stayed in the hostel from years1910 to 1913 spending the most formative years of his youth in the multiethnic capital that he hated where he also failed to become an artist after rejected by the Academy of Fine Arts. It was in the reading room of the Melldemann strasse that Hitler read anti-Semitic literature and German nationalist propaganda. Some believe it was during these years in the hostel that Hitler became obsessed with racial hygiene, cleanliness and purity. AFP PHOTO JOE KLAMAR
