from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adolf Rohde (* 2. August 1880 in Ildehausen ; † 12. June 1955 in Essen ) was a German civil engineering - engineering and mayors of cities Seesen and Itzehoe and district administrator of the district Steinburg in Schleswig-Holstein .

Life

After graduating from high school, Rohde completed a civil engineering course at the Technical University of Braunschweig and then worked as a government building manager and master builder as a graduate engineer. As a student, Rohde joined the Thuringia Braunschweig fraternity in 1900 .

From 1914 to 1919 Rohde was Mayor of Seesen. In the Weimar Republic he joined the DVP and was elected as its candidate on June 15, 1919 as second mayor in the magistrate of the city of Itzehoe; on May 16, 1920 Rohde became First Mayor of Itzehoes. He remained mayor of the district town until 1933 and resided in an Art Nouveau villa directly on Itzehoe's market square. Even today, a plaque on the building and in the rooms of the Püschel und Fitz law firm , which uses the premises today, reminds of Rohde's work in the region.

Under Rohde's leadership, the street Langer Peter was built in Itzehoe as a northern bypass of the then still small town. After Rohde had been re-elected as mayor for twelve years on April 29, 1932, he was taken into protective custody by the National Socialists on April 15, 1933 , and retired due to the law to restore the civil service .

After the end of the war, two streets together were renamed Adolf-Rohde-Strasse in his honor on his 65th birthday in 1945 . From May 25, 1945 to January 27, 1946, he was also the full-time district administrator of the Steinburg district , from January 28, 1946 to April 30, 1947 senior district director and from November 22, 1948 to May 13, 1950, honorary district administrator in Itzehoe.
