Oskar Hörrle

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oskar Ludwig Hörrle (* February 2, 1912 ; † unknown) was a German businessman.

Life

In Bern, Switzerland, RELICO has been procuring South American passports for Polish Jews since the outbreak of war. In November 1942 Hörrle received a Paraguayan passport from Consul Hügli. He was taken to the Moudon internment camp , from which he fled on May 19, 1943 and disappeared without a trace. As a result, Paraguay drew up a list of those entitled to protection, with the instruction "not to accept any other Paraguayan passport holder". From December 1943, South American passports were confiscated in civilian internment camps and some of those affected (like Jizchak Katzenelson ) were sent to Auschwitz from next spring .

On June 29, 1946, Hörrle and Eitel Friedrich Schilling von Cannstatt received the license (US-WB-1O3) to produce a newspaper, the Mannheimer Morgen (until October: Der Morgen ) from the American occupation forces . The News Control Press Department soon proved that he had been charged with several criminal offenses and had been in custody. Worse, however, was that he “had boasted of his friendship with high-ranking Nazis in various letters,” which was not evident from his questionnaire. On August 29, 1946, he resigned as a license holder. After the military government announced that it would be tried by a military tribunal, he was lost.

In 1964, the Mannheim branch of the nudist association elected him chairman. He kept his predecessor, Lothar Wilhelm, as 2nd chairman. In 1975 Hörrle acquired the Nahemühle in Monzingen , near his home in Heidelberg , and relocated the DFK headquarters from Hanover-Langenhagen there. At that time it turned out that he had been collecting commissions from tour operators and that half a million were missing from the club's coffers. He was put down on it and became known as "The Man Who Reached Naked In The Pockets".

In Heidelberg, Hörrle and his wife ran two antique shops from around 1970, from which auction houses emerged.

As nudists recall, Hörrle was sentenced to thirty-five days in prison in Greece in 1980 for causing public nuisance. After that, no trace of him was found.
