In spite of its associations it IS a genuinely historic site and should be preserved IMO.

I agree. The whole thing gives me mixed feelings, but it is historical and interesting to see..

I was struck by the comment relating to Jesse Owens's room
"It’s a simple space that reflects the modesty of the humble man who stayed there – a man who, paradoxically, enjoyed more freedom in Nazi Germany at that time that he did in his segregated U.S. homeland."
Yes, it should be preserved if only as a reminder of what happens if people like Hitler are allowed too much power.
