Zitat Bundespräsident Renner

From a letter written by State Chancellor Karl Renner to Secretary of State Julius Raab on 2 November 1945 concerning the choice of residence for the future Austrian head of state:

In my personal opinion, rooms in the Hofburg would be the most suitable for this purpose, which would undoubtedly be put to appropriate use were the head of state to be accommodated therein.
