Karl Lüllig
Karl Joseph Lüllig , also Carl Lüllig, (* February 24, 1877 in Mergentheim ; † January 30, 1946 there ) was Lord Mayor of Schwäbisch Gmünd from 1923 to 1934 .
Life
Karl Lüllig studied law at the Eberhard Karls University of Tübingen . He was a member of the Catholic student union AV Guestfalia Tübingen in the CV .
He worked as a lawyer in Ravensburg and was a member of the board of the Ravensburg Liederkranz, founded in 1920. The founding assembly of the Ravensburg City Orchestra goes back to his initiative.
Term of office as Lord Mayor
Lüllig ran as a non-party candidate for the mayoral election in Schwäbisch Gmünd in 1923. Completely surprisingly, the lawyer unknown in Gmünd won the election against the center politician supported by four parties , the Stuttgart State Councilor Hermann Gögler . Lüllig knew how to win over the clubs and to present himself as a “people's man”, while Gögler and his supporters trusted the election call of the supporting parties and otherwise largely avoided an election campaign.
In 1932 Lüllig applied for another term of office. In the election on December 11, 1932, he was able to prevail with 5,429 votes to 1,890 votes against his only challenger, the state parliament member Otto Vollmer ( KPD ) from Heilbronn .
Lüllig's impeachment
In 1934 he was removed from office by the Nazi regime under flimsy arguments. He had ordered Hitler's speech on the labor battle ( Bundesautobahn 656 ) on March 21, 1934 not to be broadcast directly to the factories and authorities of Schwäbisch Gmünd, but rather to make up for it on a record in the evening.
Honors
The city of Schwäbisch Gmünd named Karl-Lüllig-Strasse in the Rehnenhof district after its former mayor.
