The Baden People's Party (BVP) was a regional party in Baden-Württemberg . It was founded on June 5, 1959 in Karlsruhe . Their most important goal was the dissolution of the southwestern state, which had existed since 1952, by political and parliamentary means, in order to restore the state of Baden . Its first chairman was Robert Albiez, who was born in 1922.
For reasons of electoral tactics, the BVP merged with the German Party (DP) on March 6, 1960 . The party was officially named DP / BVP. On the ballot paper she was listed as a DP. In the 1960 state elections, she missed the 5% hurdle with 1.61%. It achieved the best result with 4.3% in the Freiburg administrative region . Leo Wohleb's widow Maria received 9.2% of the votes in Freiburg City. After the state election, the BVP separated from the DP on September 18, 1960. After the implementation of the second referendum in 1970, in which the citizens voted for the continued existence of Baden-Württemberg, the BVP dissolved.
Heinrich Berggötz was elected to the Karlsruhe municipal council in 1959 as the only BVP representative.
With regard to the program and the people there were overlaps with the Heimatbund Badenerland (1952–70).
