Construction is reportedly scheduled to begin this fall to turn the townhouse in the northern Austrian town of Braunau where Nazi leader Adolf Hitler was born into a police station with a human rights training center.<\/span><\/p>\n

An interior ministry spokesman for the Austrian government confirmed the controversial project to Agence France-Presse (AFP) on Monday.<\/span><\/p>\n

The re-construction of the 8,600 square-feet corner house, which is located near the border with Germany, is estimated to cost roughly $21.76 million. The project is set to begin on Oct. 2 and is expected to be completed by 2025, with the police station becoming operational by 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Austrian government took control of the house in 2016 amid concerns about it attracting neo-Nazis, but faced a lengthy legal battle with the home\u2019s owner, who did not want to sell the property.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, Austrian director Guenter Schwaiger said the government\u2019s plans for the home are controversial and will \u201calways be suspected\u201d of being \u201cin line with the dictator\u2019s wishes,\u201d AFP reported.<\/span><\/p>\n

Schwaiger, who is set to release a documentary about the house later this month, uncovered a local newspaper article from May 10, 1939, that says Hitler wanted to have his birth home converted into offices for local police. At a press conference on Monday, he called on the government to reconsider its plans for the house and said turning it into a police station is in line with Hitler\u2019s desires.<\/span><\/p>\n
