Live and act

After attending secondary school, Hagenmeyer worked for the railroad from 1908. In 1922 he passed the examination for railway chief secretary. From 1914 to 1918 Hagenmeyer took part in the First World War, most recently as a lieutenant in the reserve.

From 1919 to 1920 Hagenmeyer belonged to the Deutschvölkischer Schutz- und Trutzbund . In 1920 he switched to the NSDAP. After the party was temporarily banned, he rejoined the NSDAP in July 1927 ( membership number 70.182). In September 1929 he became a member of the SA.

After the seizure of power by the National Socialists Hagenmeyer was full-time in April 1934 SA leader. From June 1935 he led the SA Brigade 56 “Württemberg-Süd” based in Ulm. In April 1936 he was promoted to SA brigade leader. During the November pogroms of 1938 , Hagenmeyer passed on the order to set all synagogues in the area of ​​SA Brigade 56 on fire. This affected the synagogues in Ulm , Laupheim , Buchau and Göppingen . On March 1, 1939, Hagenmeyer joined the National Socialist Reichstag as a replacement for the late member Georg Utz , in which he represented constituency 31 (Württemberg) until the end of Nazi rule in spring 1945.

From August 1939, Hagenmeyer belonged to the Artillery Regiment 50, with which he was involved in the German attack in the West and in the war against the Soviet Union as a battery leader in World War II . Because of a stomach ailment, he was transferred to Army Flak Artillery Replacement Division 225 in Gotha in January 1942 . From February 1943 to 1945 he served as police director in Ulm ; at the same time he headed the local crime department and the Ulm air raid protection .

After the end of the war, Hagenmeyer was interned in Ludwigsburg , Zuffenhausen , Dachau , Regensburg and Kornwestheim from May 1945 onwards under automatic arrest . In January 1948 he was transferred to the Ravensburg remand prison. The Ravensburg Regional Court sentenced Hagenmeyer to four years and six months in prison on March 9, 1948 for crimes against humanity and arson . The subject of the proceedings was the destruction of the synagogue in Buchau on the night of November 10th to 11th, 1938. Hagenmeyer had insisted on the destruction of the synagogue after it had failed to set fire the night before. After his release on probation in October 1949, Hagenmeyer worked as a construction worker in Ulm. In the denazification in June 1950, he was classified by the Ludwigsburg Chamber of Justice as an "incriminated" person. In July 1960, Hagenmeyer moved from Ulm to Darmstadt.
