Friedrich Kuhn (local history researcher)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friedrich Kuhn (born June 13, 1895 in Heidelberg-Handschuhsheim , † January 5, 1976 in Lörrach ) was a German district school councilor, archaeologist and active opponent of the Nazi regime .

Life and Political Work

After graduating from elementary school in 1909, Friedrich Kuhn attended the teachers' seminar in Heidelberg . As a volunteer in the First World War , which he later described as "the stupidest trick of my life", he was seriously wounded on April 15, 1916 in the Caillette Forest near Verdun and survived as one of only twelve soldiers from his 200-man company .

Having become a decided opponent of the war , Kuhn stood politically for balance and international understanding . Since 1919 a member of the SPD , in 1930 Kuhn became a member of the Rheinfeld Citizens' Committee and the Säckingen District Council .

Due to open political opposition to the National Socialists , he was transferred as a teacher from Rheinfelden - Nollingen to Lörrach in 1933. He lived his attitude, which was still actively hostile towards the National Socialists, in various forms: in keeping his Jewish doctor, Dr. Samuel N. Moses, in demonstrative church visits, support simultaneous forced Alsatian fellow teachers and multiple escape aid for threatened the regime people in the Switzerland .

Because of his archaeological work, which the Nazis considered indispensable for ideological reasons, he received one of the rare cross-border commuter cards in Switzerland during the war. Under the guise of historical research, however , he was involved in conspiratorial activities in Basel and maintained contacts with opponents of the regime and foreign secret services. Conversely, Kuhn secretly brought messages from Basel from Jewish deportees from the concentration camp in Gurs ( Camp de Gurs ) and passed them on to relatives who remained in Germany.

He was arrested by the Gestapo on July 28, 1944 through denunciation for listening to the Swiss radio station Beromünster and imprisoned in Lörrach prison until December 26, 1944. He was sitting there at the same time as his evangelical pastor friend and Nazi opponent Richard Nutzinger . The advocacy of various archaeologists with senior public prosecutor Eugen Weiss in Freiburg and the end of the war prevented his transfer to a concentration camp .

In August 1945, Kuhn, legitimized by the French occupation authorities, was appointed by the Ministry of Culture and Education as District School Councilor for Lörrach and Müllheim . In this role, he was responsible for rebuilding the school system with 175 schools and around 19,000 students. In addition to the task of denazification of the teaching staff, Kuhn organized school utensils, clothes and shoes to a large extent through his previous Swiss contacts. Together with the “Deutschlandhilfe” of the “ Schweizer Spende ”, Kuhn succeeded from 1946 to 1948 in organizing urgently needed school meals for around 9,000 children in the two districts and in organizing various recreational stays for pupils. Kuhn also used his Swiss relations to exchange teachers across borders when around 300 teachers from the cantons of Basel-Stadt and Basel-Land came to visit Wiesental in June 1950 and in June 1951 over 500 teachers from Baden visited Basel schools for a return visit.

After the war, Kuhn smuggled letters for German prisoners of war on a large scale in both directions across the German-Swiss border, which at that time was still almost sealed off. The letters were forwarded and received via a network of the Swiss Red Cross and Quakers throughout Europe and the USA .

From June 1945 Kuhn wrote so-called "mood reports" for the French occupation, in which he regularly commented on the development of the school system, the mood and supply situation of the population and the political situation in occupied Germany and Europe. Kuhn, although clearly Francophile and pan-European, ended these reports in June 1948 in protest against the French occupation policy, which he believed was disastrous and counterproductive for the democratic reconstruction of Germany (“I am not in a position today to approve of what I used to condemn and fought: that power equals right ”). The reports, which total around 230 pages, are today considered to be important evidence of the post-war period in the southwest corner of Germany.

From 1946 to 1962 Kuhn was a member of the Lörrach city council for the SPD and temporarily chairman of the local association, but he rejected the party-internal candidacy for Lörrach mayor after the war. For his political, professional and social services, Kuhn received the Federal Cross of Merit on Ribbon in 1951 and was a member of the second Federal Assembly for the re-election of Theodor Heuss for the SPD in 1954 . In November 1959, Kuhn was a participant in the Kuratorium Indivisible Germany in Berlin .

Kuhn retired in September 1961.

archeology

As a primary school teacher, Kuhn discovered his passion for prehistory and early history. Thorough knowledge of the Upper Rhine landscape and systematic analysis of historical landmarks enabled him to make numerous important discoveries. First as a historical autodidact and later as a regular visitor to archaeological lectures at the University of Basel, he continuously deepened his knowledge and methodologies. At the end of the 1920s, he was involved in Roman excavations in the Swiss Kaiseraugst ( Augusta Raurica ) and near Königsfelden ( Vindonissa ) through the Basel archaeologist Laur-Belart .

In 1934 Kuhn was appointed by the Baden Ministry of Culture to be the district curator for prehistory and early history in the Lörrach district (until 1969). His excavations and finds include u. a. the Fliehburg near Degerfelden (1927), the Alemanni cemetery near Herten (1927), the Roman bridgehead of the Kaiseraugst fort near Wyhlen (1933), the Alemanni cemetery near Lörrach-Stetten (1938), the discovery of the Neolithic jasper mine near Istein (1939), the Bronze Age urn fire graves from Binzen (1939), the Alemanni cemetery near Efringen-Kirchen (1942) and the German-Swiss excavation of Hallstatt-era ramparts on the Grenzacher Horn (1947). In addition, Kuhn dealt with place name research and general settlement studies on the Upper Rhine.

Exhibits from his excavations are now in the Dreiländermuseum in Lörrach and in the Badisches Landemuseum in Karlsruhe . The publication of the results of his finds through publications and numerous lectures was always important to him as a teacher . He regularly went on historical excursions with his school classes, especially to his excavation sites.

During his work on prehistory and early history, Kuhn worked with well-known archaeologists and historians: Elisabeth Schmid (1912–1994), Georg Kraft (1894–1944), Rudolf Laur-Belart (1898–1972), Roland Bay (1909– 1992), Friedrich Metz (1890–1969), Robert Lais (1886–1945), Gerhard Fingerlin (1937–2016), Felix Stähelin (1873–1952), Otto Wittmann (1907–1986), Alfred Mutz (1903–1990) , Eugen Eble (1914-1969).

In recognition of Friedrich Kuhn's services to research into prehistory and early history on the Upper Rhine, the Fricktalisch-Badische Vereinigung appointed him an honorary member on May 4, 1975.

Other activities

Friedrich Kuhn was also musically talented. In a field post letter from the Somme Front dated February 15, 1915, he reports that he played the organ on a day of rest in the church in Nesle , France. As an elementary school teacher, he taught music and gave violin lessons privately. In 1923 he was a founding member of the Rippolingen / Bad Säckingen men's choir and its first choir director. After being transferred to the primary school in Nollingen / Rheinfelden, he took over the management of the “Harmonie” choral society there in 1924. In Rheinfelden he was on the board of the fruit growing association in 1933.
