Behind thickets of beech trees, overgrown with nettles and beside a blue lake an hour north of Berlin, a villa that once belonged to a Nazi mastermind quietly rots. Berlin struggles to find a solution for the villa once owned by Joseph Goebbels, considering giving it away for free.
Owned by the State of Berlin, the estate near Bogensee lake includes buildings from both Nazi and Communist eras, making it a significant historical site. The government is open to giving away the property as it's costly and challenging to sell or develop.
State's senator for finance, Stefan Evers, expressed frustration, offering the option to take the estate or face demolition due to its maintenance cost. This led to global interest from potential takers but subject to government approval.
