    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Three men wearing Division Deutschland T-shirts, a brand associated with neo-Nazis, had walked up behind him as he was enjoying a drink with friends at a beer table outside the Kuckucksnest bar in the Bavarian alpine town of Berchtesgaden.

    “I think it’s very important to say: ‘You don’t get this village back – this historical spot is gone for you forever,’” said Palm, a father of a four-year-old son and two-year-old twin daughters, speaking of the birth that day of a citizens’ initiative known as Berchtesgaden Against the Right.

    “The fact that many people from relevant rightwing circles are making pilgrimages to Obersalzberg again today is a thorn in the side of many in the Berchtesgaden valley basin,” a website set up by the initiative says.

    By 1936, the Berghof, as it was renamed, was the German Führer’s second seat of power after Berlin, amid a complex of private and government buildings where he spent a quarter of his time as chancellor.

    From its “great room”, overlooking the snow-capped Untersberg massif, Hitler launched the invasion of Poland in September 1939, plotted Operation Barbarossa against the Soviet Union and executed the siege of Leningrad at the cost of the lives of 800,000 of its inhabitants.

    More immediately, in the next few days, a first step will be made to rename Von Hindenburg Allee, a central street in Berchtesgaden named in 1933 after the-then German president in honour of his decision to make Hitler chancellor.

        Ah yes, “Nazi Punks Fuck Off”, on concrete canvass. Truly one of the most uplifting works of our time.
