Hans Weisheit (born June 9, 1901 in Hermülheim , † September 14, 1954 in Frechen ) was a German politician ( NSDAP ).

Life

Wisdom attended elementary school as well as the Kaiser Wilhelm and Friedrich Wilhelm grammar schools in Cologne. He left the latter in 1918 with secondary school leaving certificate. From 1919 to 1933 he worked for the Reichsbahn , from 1927 as a civil servant.

Wisdom had contacts with National Socialists in Cologne around 1922, including presumably the later Gauleiter Josef Grohé . He formally joined the NSDAP ( membership number 21.018) in October 1925. After resigning from the party in May 1927, he became a member again in August 1930, keeping the old membership number. In July 1931 he joined the SS .

After the transfer of power to the National Socialists, Weisheit became provisional mayor of Mechernich in July 1933 . In February 1934 he moved from the SS to the SA with the rank of Sturmbannführer . At the end of 1934 he took a leave of absence as mayor and became NSDAP district leader for the rural and urban district of Bonn , where he left the SA at the same time. From November 1936 until the end of the Nazi regime in 1945, Weisheit was District Administrator of the Siegkreis . Gauleiter Grohé had suggested wisdom to the Upper President of the Rhine Province , Josef Terboven , in August 1936 . The proposal initially met with reservations because Wisdom lacked the necessary qualifications as a district administrator.

From 1936 on , Weisheit was a member of the National Socialist Reichstag for constituency 20 (Cologne-Aachen) . In April 1938 he ran again, but received no more mandate. During the Second World War , Weisheit belonged to a substitute propaganda battalion of the Wehrmacht between April and October 1940 and was temporarily used in troop support in Belgium and northern France.

After the end of the Nazi regime, Weisheit was interned in the Staumühle camp near Paderborn until July 1947, according to automatic arrest . During the denazification in October 1951, he was classified in the group of the “minor offenders”. Wisdom last worked as an employee of a clothing store in Cologne.
