He lost the house in 1934, after falling behind on mortgage payments.According to the research, Hitler treated his Jewish landlord “with courtesy” despite harboring strong anti-Semitism that would later contribute to the Nazi’s murderous policy toward Jews.Erlanger survived the war and was able to get his house back in 1949.The research was first reported Saturday by Der Spiegel magazine.By: AP GermanyHitlerHolocaust
