Career

Karl Marbach was born on January 4, 1909 in Wilhelmshaven as the son of an administrative officer. He attended the humanistic high school in Wilhelmshaven and Stralsund , where he passed the Abitur at Easter 1928 . He then studied law in Jena , Berlin and Kiel . During his studies he became a member of the Teutonia fraternity in Kiel .

Marbach received his doctorate in 1934 at the law and political science faculty of the University of Kiel . During the Second World War he was a war administrator and head of the administrative department at the Commander Saloniki-Aegean in Saloniki until his replacement by Max Merten . From September 1942 he served as a sergeant on the Eastern Front . There he fell ill with polio , which left him in a wheelchair until his death.

In 1960 Marbach von Merten was charged with false statements. In July 1958, in the war crimes trial pending against Merten in Athens, Marbach had not confirmed Merten's allegation that he had only been in Salonika since August 1942. Merten could therefore not exonerate himself from the accusation of not having been involved in the registration of Jewish men for forced labor on the Freiheitsplatz in Saloniki in June 1942.

From February 18, 1953 to January 31, 1974 he was President of the Schleswig-Holstein State Audit Office .
