14 DAY TRIAL // A bell made to homage Hitler in 1939 is still in place in a castle in Austria, reports say. The relic was discovered when the castle was sold.
It was being used in the small village of Wolfpassing, 60 miles (96 km) east of the capital city of Vienna, the New York Daily News reported. The tower bell features a swastika and a message to Hitler.
Recently, the castle has been transferred from the Austrian government to one Tobias Hufnagl. The engraving on the relic, which can be observed in the photo posted above, describes Hitler as “the unifier and Fuhrer of all Germans.”
The bell was produced just before Austria was engulfed by Germany during the Second World War.
Hitler is supposedly releasing “Ostmark [Austria] from the yoke of suppression by foreign elements and brought it home into the Great German Reich,” the inscription reads.
