Hans Weineck (born April 16, 1926 ; † January 2, 2011 in Dresden ) was a Dresden worker functionary and author.

Life

He was the son of the Dresden worker functionary Arthur Weineck , executed on August 16, 1944 , who had been a member of the SPD since 1922 and switched to the KPD in 1928 , where he organized the construction of the workers' home in the Körnergarten on Grosse Meißner Strasse as district leader of the KPD .

When the NSDAP came to power , his father managed to evade arrest for some time. At the end of March 1933 he was imprisoned in the Dresden police headquarters and later in the Hohnstein concentration camp in Saxon Switzerland until the end of the year . At the time of his father's murder, Hans Weineck was 18 years old. After the end of World War II, Hans Weineck joined the SED and later devoted himself specifically to the collection of documents on party history. He wrote several publications, some in close cooperation with Saxon archivists of the Dresden State Archives, on which he worked temporarily, such as Reiner Groß and Manfred Kobuch . In 2007 he published a portrait of his father, who was executed in 1944.
