Honoring Citizen Hitler

Last year the Bavarian town of Dietramszell, rejected a vote to strip Adolph Hitler of his citizenship. Bavaria. Town archivist Agnes Wagner had found that Hitler was made an honorary citizen of the area in 1933.Mayor Leni Gröbmaier put a motion to the town council with the intent to distance the town from Hitler and other major Nazis.

Council member Josef Hauser said, “Honorary citizenship goes with death. It is all a very long time ago.”  The vote failed with eight voting for and eight voting against.
