Döllersheim was Adolf Hitler's ancestral village in Austria. When he annexed Austria as leader of Germany in 1938, Hitler ordered Döllersheim and several neighboring villages to be destroyed, despite (or perhaps because) it contained the grave of his paternal grandmother, Maria Schicklgruber. German troops forcibly evacuated the villagers before bombing Döllersheim as part of a training exercise.
