Dieter Dombrowski (born June 23, 1951 in East Berlin ) is a German politician ( CDU ). Between 1999 and 2019 he was a member of the state parliament in Brandenburg .

Life and work

Dombrowski is the youngest of eight children in a Catholic family; his father is from Poland. From the sixth child onwards, GDR President Wilhelm Pieck took on a formal sponsorship. Dombrowski completed an apprenticeship as a painter from 1968 to 1970 and then did his basic military service from 1970 to 1972 in the National People's Army (NVA) of the GDR . On August 13, 1974, he was sentenced to four years in prison by the Schwerin District Court for “ illegally crossing the border ” and “establishing contacts against the state” , of which he served 20 months, 16 months of which in the Stasi prison in Cottbus. (He was rehabilitated in 1994.) His sister, who took a receipt with her when she visited and smuggled it to the West, was also sentenced to four and a half years in prison.

After moving to West Berlin , he retrained as a dental technician from 1978 to 1980 . In West Berlin he was also involved in actions against the SED dictatorship. For example, he symbolically walled up the entrance to the Aeroflot office at Zoo station. This happened together with Bernd Moldenhauer , who was later murdered by an employee of the Ministry for State Security . From 1983 to 1990 he was a speaker at the German Bundestag (regional group of Berlin CDU members). In West Berlin, too, he was spied on by Stasi employees such as the cartoonist Gero Hilliger .

In the 1980s Dombrowski testified as a witness in a trial for incitement to hatred after participants in a trip of the Berlin JU to Hambach Castle, which he led, had been noticed for singing the Horst Wessel song and showing the Hitler salute. He did not notice this, said Dombrowski. Two young men were convicted of sedition and wearing anti-constitutional Nazi symbols. The court pointed out that significantly more had happened than what was stated in the indictment. According to the court, the testimony of the tour guide Dombrowski would have “convinced” the least.

From 1990 to 1994 he was district administrator of the Rathenow district . From 1994 he was branch manager and from 1997 to 2004 managing director of the consulting company for municipal infrastructure in Werder (Havel) . Dombrowski is a member of the board of directors of Rathenower Werkstätten für Behinderte und Betreutes Wohnen GmbH and, since 2015, federal chairman of the Union of Victims' Associations of Communist Tyranny .

Dieter Dombrowski is married, has two children and lives in Bahnitz (municipality of Milower Land ). His wife Petra is also a member of the CDU district council. He is of the Catholic faith.
