【My Sinful Valentine XXX】

A Nazi-themed cafe in Indonesia that faced widespread criticism for years has finally been shut down -- for now.

The My Sinful Valentine XXXSoldaten Kaffee, which is named after a cafe in Paris that was popular with Nazi soldiers, has closed its doors due to a lack of customers.

The cafe had initially shut down in 2013 after owner Henry Mulyana started receiving death threats, but was reopened a year later, with a picture of Adolf Hitler and swastikas still on display.

However, Mulyana is clearly undeterred, and has pledged to reopen his cafe at a bigger location.

"The public interest is low because the current location is not very strategic," Rohman Hidayat, Mulyana's lawyer, told news agency AFP.

He also added that they were waiting for new investors.

The cafe's Facebook page, which is still available, states that the cafe is not "pro Nazi...it is matter of fact (sic) with the intention of exploring Hitler and the Nazis as pop culture".

Photos taken from the social media page show that the cafe was widely adorned with the the Third Reich eagle, which is stamped even on ceramic dining plates.

The cafe, which is located in the Indonesian city of Bandung, first opened in 2011.

However, it was only after some two years that the cafe caught the attention of the media, leading to international criticism, especially from Jewish operations.

The LA-based Simon Wiesenthal Center had previously expressed "outrage and disgust" towards the cafe.

Muslim-majority Indonesia has a relatively small Jewish population.
