The House of Otto Skorzeny in Alcúdia: Furniture, Myths and a Lack of Reckoning

Answer

What should Mallorca do with houses connected to Nazi-era figures?

A practical approach is to document the history, make the facts publicly accessible, and avoid romanticising the property. Local authorities, historians, and owners can work together on neutral information signs, short brochures, or research projects. The goal is not to stigmatise a house, but to make sure its past is understood rather than forgotten.
