Germany Wants To Give Away Hitler Aide Joseph Goebbels' Villa For Free

Joseph Goebbels’ 17-hectare estate and villa was built in 1936 and used for various purposes, including his affairs with actresses.

Berlin's government has decided to give away a villa once owned by a major Nazi figure for free in view of its expensive upkeep, reported The Telegraph (UK). The property in question is a lakeside villa with a disturbing history. The estate, located in the countryside north of the German capital, was once owned by Joseph Goebbels, the propaganda minister of Adolf Hitler.

Berlin authorities have announced their plans to give away the villa for free, the report said.

Goebbels, a high-ranking official in Nazi Germany, was part of Hitler's inner circle and played a major role in shaping Nazi propaganda.
