Badge "FDJ Local Research"
Badge motif of the community of interest for local research in the FDJ
The badge "FDJ - Heimatforschung" stood for the interest groups for local research in the Free German Youth . These were organized locally. The 18 mm badge made of non-ferrous metal shows a stylized city wall in dark red, surrounded by two white oak leaves. The FDJ logo is placed in the gate of the city wall and inscribed below with the word Heimatforschung .
From the 1950s onwards, the FDJ had various thematic interest groups for which so-called interest group letters were published.
