Hubert Korbacher 1933

Hubert Korbacher (born July 17, 1892 in Arnstein , Lower Franconia ; † May 6, 1961 in Schwabmünchen ) was a German politician (BVP).

Live and act

Korbacher was a pilot in the First World War until he was seriously wounded in September 1917, with Fliegerabteilung 46 b . Following the death of his twin brother Fritz, he became a master watchmaker , took over his parents' business and was involved in the Bavarian People's Party (BVP) during the Weimar Republic . For this he was a member of the Berlin Reichstag from 1930 to November 1933 as a member of constituency 26 (Franconia) , where, like all members of the BVP , he voted for Hitler's enabling law .

From 1931 to 1932, as a speaker at mass meetings of the Bavarian People's Party, Korbacher repeatedly took a stand against the Nazi regime, which was emerging at the time . After the National Socialist " seizure of power " in 1933, the pressure against Korbacher increased accordingly. When Hubert Korbacher was listed as a candidate for the NSDAP (Hitler movement) in the announcement of the nomination for the election to the German Reichstag on November 12, 1933, the NSDAP local group in his hometown demanded in a letter to the Würzburg Gauleitung on November 15, 1933: "Korbacher has to step down from the political stage because he is intolerable."
