Glockenberg 5	17th October 2011	Albert Mielke (1895–1933) Albert Mielke came from Kleinschwarzsee and began studying theology in Halle (Saale) in 1914 . When the First World War broke out , he signed up as a volunteer and did not continue his studies in Greifswald until 1919 . He took his first exam in Stettin in January 1920, followed by the second exam in April 1921. Ordination took place in September 1921 . In 1923 he married Maria Lang-Heinrich, with whom he had three children. From 1923 he worked first in Hainrode , later in Geussnitz as a pastor, until he finally took up a position in Oberschmon in April 1932. There he proved to be an outspoken opponent of National Socialism. When the German Christians wanted to nominate the local group leader of the SA Bielke in the church elections on July 23, 1933 , Mielke had him struck off the list of candidates without further ado, as he had no relationship with the church community. The pastor was then exposed to open threats. On November 2, 1933, in the evening hours of a confirmation hour in Ziegelroda, he set out on his bike home, but never made it to Oberschmon. The following day, his body was found on the siding of the Leimbacher Gaststätte train station. Although serious injuries to his head and hands, as well as his blood-splattered bicycle, which was parked far from the track, strongly indicated a violent crime, the police did not initiate an investigation, but instead referred to the matter as an "accident".	ALBERT MIELKE Pastor born in 1895 murdered in the Christian resistance in Oberschmon on November 2nd, 1933
