Multiple stickers belonging to the group Antipodean Resistance, which all contained the Nazi swastikas on them, were found in Civic on Friday.
The stickers described the group as a "21st century Hitler youth" and were found in locations such as City Walk, Ainslie Place as well as outside the Canberra Theatre Centre.
Canberra resident Augustine Bamberry said he removed several of the stickers after seeing posts about them on social media.
"My friend ... found two of them stuck on the front of CMAG and the Canberra Theatre Centre," he said.
"I went out looking for more to remove them at about 6pm on Friday. All up, he removed two of them and I found and removed five of them."
The appearance of the stickers on Friday co-incided with the birthday of Adolf Hitler.
Mr Bamberry said he was disgusted by the stickers.
"I just saw the post by my friend urging people to tear down the stickers, and so that afternoon I thought I'd go for a walk and see if there were any more to remove."
Despite warnings on social media that some stickers may have razor blades attached underneath, Mr Bamberry said he didn't find any.
Posters linked to Antipodean Resistance have been seen recently in other capital cities including Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
The posters bore slogans including "legalise the execution of the Jews" and "get the sodomite filth off the streets".
NSW Opposition Leader Luke Foley took to Twitter on Friday to say he was "sickened" by the posters.
On its website, Antipodean Resistance describes itself as an "Australian national socialist youth organisation", saying it's "closer to a 21st century Hitler youth than the Nazi Party itself".
"While we engage in other activities ... the main part of what we do is currently postering, stickering, martial training and creating murals," the group's website said.
The group came to prominence in October 2016 and have also been linked to several anti-gay posters put up during last year's same-sex marriage postal survey.
ACT Policing has been contacted for comment.
