Live and act

After graduating from high school, Fritz Görnnert studied aircraft and mechanical engineering at the TH Karlsruhe from 1928 to 1933 . During his studies he was a leader in the NS student union . At the beginning of January 1931 he had already joined the NSDAP ( membership number 411.588). Soon afterwards he became a member of the SA , where he last achieved the rank of brigade leader . After completing his studies, he worked as a "teacher of ideology and as a staff leader of the SA Reichsfuhrer School". In October 1939 he was awarded a Dr. ing. PhD . According to Helmut Maier , Görnnert's dissertation with the title “The work, a technical-political study: Contributions to the technical concept of work” was a “racist-anti-Semitic inflammatory pamphlet” and not a “groundbreaking study”, but which dealt with “rationalization, Taylorism and economic organization in the NS- State thematized ”. In 1941 he was made an honorary citizen of the TH Karlsruhe.

From January 1937 Görnnert was Goering's adjutant. In addition, he took over the deputy head of Göring's staff and headed Department I. His tasks included a. a. the organization of Göring's contacts with the party, especially with the party chancellery under the direction of Martin Bormann . As Göring's personal advisor, he also represented him on the Reich Research Council . During the Second World War he was also active in the Reich Ministry of Aviation , first as Ministerialrat from April 1940 and as Ministerial Director from January 1944.

After the end of the war, Görnnert was interned by the Allies and was questioned. He made an affidavit in defense of Viktor Brack , who was accused in the Nuremberg doctors' trial . Görnnert was released from internment in 1947.

He was married to Paula Görnnert (* 1914) and lived with his family in the Karlsruhe district of Rintheim , where he was honorary chairman of the Rintheim Citizens' Association for fifteen years and started the Bürgerblatt in 1970.
