Scotland on Sunday - Goebbels' idyllic lakeside retreat goes on sale

THE lakeside retreat where Nazi propaganda chief Josef Goebbels wrote his anti-Semitic speeches is for sale. Berlin says it cannot afford to keep the £2m Bogensee Villa, a gift from Adolf Hitler, where Goebbels hosted lavish parties for foreign dignitaries. But in the wake of neo-Nazi poll victories in September, the government is screening potential buyers to ensure it does not become a Nazi shrine.
