Austria – Skinhead group give Hitler salute on visit to death camp where 120,000 people died

A group of young far-right supporters have shocked Austria by wearing pro-Nazi T-shirts and giving the Hitler salute during a visit to a death camp where 120,000 people were murdered.

The skinhead group from the town of Wels posted photographs of themselves on the Internet wearing the shirts at the site of the Mauthausen camp where tens of thousands of people were gassed, worked to death or killed in hideous medical experiments.

The group, all of whom are known members of a far-right organisation in Wels called ‘The Multicoloured’, took along a small child for what authorities branded their ‘grotesque desecration’ of the Mauthausen camp.

Two of the group were women who wore T-shirts with Nazi slogans, one of them with a bag saying: ‘I support Nazis.’ ‘I like Nazi Rock’ was the slogan on one of the shirts worn by a man, ‘National Socialist,’ on another.
