He studied medicine and served in the First World War as a soldier in the German Army , for which he was awarded the Iron Cross, 2nd class. After receiving his doctorate in 1918, he became an assistant doctor at the sanatorium of Dr. Rosell in Ballenstedt . He later opened his own neurological practice in Ballenstedt , which he moved to Quedlinburg in the 1920s. Weinberg came from a Jewish family, but had converted to the Protestant faith. He was married to Helene geb. Fessel and had two daughters with her. His eldest daughter Jutta drowned in a pond near Ballenstedt in 1930. After the National Socialists came to power, Weinberg was subjected to considerable reprisals. From May 1933 SA posts were often in front of his practice. On July 25, 1938, he had to give up his work as a doctor. During the November pogroms in 1938 , members of the SS stormed the vineyard's apartment with burning torches and devastated the facility.

He temporarily stayed with Hans Sachs, whom he had met in Buchenwald. His wife moved to Dessau and his daughter Bärbel was already living in Berlin at the time . Since the plans to emigrate to the United States failed, Weinberg moved to live with his siblings in Riga in March 1939 . Helene Weinberg later filed for divorce, which became final on December 15, 1942.
