Anton Hausmann (born June 11, 1899 in Schönbach in the Egerland ; † July 23, 1960 in Stephanskirchen near Rosenheim ) was a Sudeten German politician ( NSDAP ).

Live and act

After attending primary school in Schönbach and grammar school in Eger , Hausmann took part in World War I as a volunteer from 1917 , where he was deployed on the Italian front , in Gorizia, Transylvania and in the Grappa region. After his release in October 1918, he studied law at the University of Prague .

From 1921 Hausmann worked as a writer. Politically he began to be active at this time in the national movement in the Sudeten areas, for example in the German Gymnastics Association. From 1931 until the dissolution of the German National Socialist Workers' Party (DNSAP) he was the first deputy mayor of the city of Tetschen . In October 1933 he joined the Sudeten German home front of Konrad Heiden in order to work as a functionary in the Sudeten German party .

After the annexation of the Sudeten areas by the German Reich in autumn 1938, Hausmann became the NSDAP commissioner to build circles for the party in November 1938 and was then district leader in Tetschen until 1942. On the occasion of the by-election to the Reichstag elected in April 1938 on December 4, 1938, Hausmann entered the National Socialist Reichstag as a member of the National Socialist Reichstag , which he was a member of until the end of the Nazi regime in spring 1945.

From 1942 to 1945 Hausmann was district manager in Opava . In this capacity, he fell for his repressive policy towards the Czech population, who, according to Hausmann, “had to work, work and work again, but otherwise be quiet”. In the SS he reached the rank of Obersturmführer in 1943. From August 1944 he was also Gauamtsleiter at the Gau Office Sudetenland.
