Paul Weg (born September 14, 1899 - October 23, 1952 ) was a Prussian district administrator .

Wegen, an elementary school teacher by profession, had been a member of the NSDAP since 1928. He acted as a local group leader in Hettstedt and until 1931 as a district leader in the Mansfeld mountain district. In 1932 he built the NSLB in the Gau and became the Gauamtsleiter of this NS teacher organization. 1933 was way after the leave of absence from Wilhelm Becker provisional district of Mansfeld mountainous district in the administrative district of Merseburg of the Prussian province of Saxony . In 1934 he finally took over this office, which he held until 1938. Because of his arguments with the NSDAP district leader, which resulted in a party expulsion procedure, he was transferred to Lingen (Ems) , where he became district administrator of the Lingen district . His successor was Rudolf Schmidt . During the war, Wegen was temporarily entrusted with the administration of the neighboring county of Grafschaft Bentheim.

After 1945, Weg lived in Lingen, where he was denazified as an “essential promoter and beneficiary” of National Socialism . Unemployed until at least 1950, he then worked as an insurance agent. He died after a traffic accident in Annaheim Hospital in Schüttorf.
