Friedrich Dürr (resistance fighter)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friedrich Dürr (* 1904 ; † April 28, 1945 ) was a German resistance fighter against National Socialism .

Life

Friedrich Dürr, a trained machine fitter from Mannheim , was imprisoned in the Dachau concentration camp because he had campaigned against fascism . Among other things, he was involved in leaflet campaigns. During a search of his apartment on January 8, 1935, KPD badges were discovered and Dürr was initially sentenced to three years in prison for high treason, which he put behind him in Bruchsal . Since he did not cooperate with the judiciary, he was subsequently imprisoned in the concentration camp. He was only in the Aschendorf subcamp of the Esterwegen concentration camp , and from July 30, 1938 he was a prisoner with the number 308 in the Dachau concentration camp.

He continued to agitate while in captivity: He was involved in the Dachau uprising , which prevented 30,000 prisoners from being abducted by the SS shortly before the liberation by the Allied forces . Dürr was then shot in Dachau.

The JUZ Friedrich Dürr is named after the resistance fighter. On March 23, 2009, a stumbling block was laid for Friedrich Dürr. It is located at Langen Rötterstrasse 22 in Mannheim. Friedrich-Dürr-Strasse in Mannheim-Schönau is named after the resistance fighter.
