Life
The son of a farmer attended elementary school and business school from 1911 to 1919. After joining the Nazi Party in 1925, he was later than Gauredner working the party. After the " seizure of power " by the National Socialists, Ackermann was Gauinspectorur from 1936 under Gau Leader Gustav Simon in Gau Koblenz-Trier , renamed Gau Moselland in 1941. From November 1942 to May 1944 he was provisional Gauhauptamtsleiter for local politics.
After the occupation of Luxembourg by German troops in May 1940, Gauleiter Simon also became head of the civil administration (CdZ) in Luxembourg ; Ackermann was part of Simon's staff in Luxembourg. He was head of Department IV A, which dealt with the Aryanization of Jewish property. Ackermann was a member of the SA ; in the SA he was promoted to SA Oberführer on November 9, 1938 and to SA Brigadführer on November 9, 1943. On December 9, 1941, Ackermann received a seat in the Reichstag as the successor to Detlef Dern from Neuwied , after he had run unsuccessfully for the Reichstag in 1936 and 1938 .
In the spring of 1945, Ackermann was apparently denied access to an air raid shelter in Arenberg, after having attacked a wounded Wehrmacht soldier. After the end of the war he was interned by the Allies and shortly afterwards extradited to Luxembourg. According to documents from the Ludwigsburg Central Office , he was sentenced to ten years of forced labor in Luxembourg on July 21, 1950; by a pardon on April 23, 1951, the sentence was reduced to seven years in prison . Ackermann returned to Germany in the first half of the 1950s, possibly the internment period had been counted towards the prison sentence.
