Christian Hanebuth
Christian Hanebuth (born December 1, 1911 in Hanover , † July 23, 1972 in Berlin ) was a German politician ( SPD ).
Hanebuth attended secondary school in Magdeburg and worked for the Deutsche Reichsbahn from 1928 to 1948 . He began his apprenticeship as a machine fitter at the Salbke Reichsbahn repair shop in Magdeburg. In 1931 his family moved to Berlin, where his father Karl Hanebuth was promoted to the union building of the German Railway Workers Union. In 1938 Christian Hanebuth became a locomotive driver .
In 1929 he joined the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD). As a youth member of the German Railway Association, he took on voluntary youth work, already as an apprentice in Magdeburg, and in the course of his life made a name for himself as an excellent employee of the independent trade unions.
After the end of the war in Berlin occupied by the Allies in 1945, he again made himself available to trade union work and became a shop steward and works council in the Berlin-Schöneweide depot . Hanebuth was a participant in the founding meeting of the independent trade unions (UGO) in 1948, which split off from the Free German Trade Union Federation (FDGB) of the Soviet zone of occupation . At the end of the blockade in May 1949, Hanebuth was active in the railway workers' strike for the rights of railway workers living in western Berlin. In 1948 he became a full-time trade union secretary on the board of the German Railway Workers' Union . Since 1950 he was the local committee or district chairman of the German Trade Union Federation in Neukölln , later also for the administrative districts of Kreuzberg and Tempelhof.
With a delegation of leading trade unionists, Hanebuth toured the United States in 1955 as a guest of the US Department of State . The group met with AFL / CIO leaders in Philadelphia, New York, Miami, California, and Chicago.
In January 1962, when Heinz Striek became Senate Director in Senate Brandt II , Hanebuth moved up to the Berlin House of Representatives for a good year . He was sure of a direct re-election, but the party moved up list candidate Walter Sickert , who later became President of the House of Representatives.
In addition to his full-time activities, Hanebuth also carried out honorary functions, as a state labor judge and on the administrative committee of the state labor office. As a member of the SPD, he worked as a cashier, delegate, department, district, and state board member. He worked as a district councilor in his residential district of Neukölln.
Christian Hanebuth married Gertrud Karksoka from Gutten, East Prussia in 1937. They had three children, Angela Hanebuth Schwencker, Ludwig Hanebuth and Gisela Hanebuth Kutzbach.
