1. Period before 1933 and after 1945 : “Continuity of persecution” . Benno Stieber comments: “This makes the long lines of criminalization and persecution of certain ethnic groups visible, which survive in all three state apparatuses, albeit to different degrees. The Silver Hotel officials persecute homosexuals in all three regimes . Also Sinti and Roma be pursued independently of democracy or dictatorship often collectively as 'criminal elements' . The press was still reporting abuse in the Hotel Silber in the 1950s. The victims are women who are suspected of having had an abortion. There is talk of Gestapo methods in the moral police.

Stuttgart Hotel Silber at Dorotheenstrasse 10 on Karlsplatz

Hotel Silber is the colloquial name of the Stuttgart building, which from 1937 to 1945 housed the Stuttgart state police station, i.e. the Gestapo headquarters for the parts of the Reich in Württemberg and Hohenzollern . It is located at Dorotheenstrasse 10 on Karlsplatz , opposite the old orphanage and not far from the old castle .

In the east wing of the Hotel Silber there is a place of remembrance with the permanent exhibition “Persecution and Police” in “three systems” .

Hotel Silber around 1900, before the partial destruction in 1944

history

In a residential building built in 1816 on today's property, an inn "Zum Bahnhof" was opened in 1845, a few years later it was expanded and was named "Zum Bayrischer Hof".

In 1874 Heinrich Silber bought the building and expanded it into the "Hotel Silber". In 1897 Wilhelm Bubeck bought the hotel and expanded the building to include the adjacent building. The ADAC was founded there in 1903 (initially as the German Motorcyclists Association ). In 1913 the facade was decorated with a neo-renaissance style, acquired by Heinrich Stapff in 1906 and sold four years later to the Württemberg State Treasury.

From 1919 to 1928 the house housed the Oberpostdirektion of the Deutsche Reichspost for Württemberg.

1928 to 1933

From 1928 to 1933 the building housed authorities that were subordinate to the Württemberg Ministry of the Interior: the Stuttgart Police Headquarters and the state departments of the Political Police. The latter monitored u. a. the KPD and the NSDAP .

1933 to September 1944

With "extensive" staff continuity, the Hotel Silber was the service building of the Political Police during National Socialism . From 1933 it was used as the Württemberg headquarters and from 1937 as the Hohenzollern headquarters. From October 1936 the Political Police was no longer under the Württemberg Ministry of the Interior ("Württemberg Political State Police Office"), but became part of the national Gestapo . Eugen Bolz , the last President of the State of Württemberg in the Weimar Republic, was summoned here in 1933 and taken into “ protective custody ” under abuse .

For the National Socialists, the Jews were the "main enemies". The persecution of the Jews up to their deportation for extermination was organized mainly by the Gestapo in cooperation with the other NS police departments, such as the SD (security service), the SS , the regulatory police and the criminal police . The secret police took part in the persecution of Sinti and Roma , homosexuals and so-called asocials , with the criminal investigation department (Kripo) playing a decisive role . A dwindling minority was in resistance to the Nazi regime. The tasks of the Gestapo also included the systematic fight against political resistance. Until 1939 these were mainly communists and social democrats. Opposition clergy and members of the Catholic and Protestant churches were also fought. The Jehovah's Witnesses , who fundamentally refused to accept National Socialism, were particularly under pressure . During the Second World War, the Gestapo monitored the forced laborers coming from the occupied territories. In doing so, these forced laborers who broke the "rules" could kill.

The Gestapo had its own informants . The Gestapo also received information primarily from the V-people system of the SD (security service), from the block and cell leaders , from other NSDAP branches and from informers .

The most important detention facility of the Stuttgart Stapo control center was in Welzheim. A total of around 10,000 prisoners were imprisoned in this Gestapo prison for a shorter or longer period.

Up until autumn 1944 there were three “storage cells” in the basement. Well-known prisoners were Kurt Schumacher , who later became chairman of the SPD, and the communists Liselotte Herrmann and Lina Haag .

A spy network was maintained from Dorotheenstrasse 10 in Switzerland during the Second World War . It should u. a. Information is obtained for a possible attack by Nazi Germany on Switzerland.

From 1938 until the end of the Second World War, personnel of the Political Police and the Gestapo Württemberg-Hohenzollern were active in the areas occupied or incorporated by Nazi Germany in the task forces and in offices of the SiPo and the SD . These included leaders such as Walter Stahlecker , who had more than 240,000 people, including 218,050 Jews, killed in the Baltic States and the Leningrad region, and deputy leaders, such as Wilhelm Harster , who was responsible for the deportation of 82,773 Jewish men, women and children the Netherlands is responsible for the extermination camps.

October 1944 to April 1945

After the destruction of the west wing by the British Air Force in September 1944 , the Gestapo headquarters was relocated to Heusteigstrasse. However, the preserved rooms were still used u. a. as a switchboard. Since the previous police prison in Büchsenstrasse had also been destroyed, the cellar of the “Hotel Silber” was converted into a prison and used until April 19, 1945. On April 13, 1945, a few days before the city was handed over to the French army, four prisoners were hanged here by the Gestapo. All Gestapo documents located there were burned at the end of the war.

1945 to 2013

In the post-war years , the Hotel Silber was under French and then American supervision. The western allies initiated demilitarization, denazification, decentralization and the democratization of public order. Until 1949, various police authorities, which became urban by order of the Allies, were housed there.

After that, the building was mainly used by the criminal police. A prison was set up in the rebuilt west wing. In 1973 the city police were nationalized, so the authorities at Dorotheenstrasse 10 were directly subordinate to the state of Baden-Württemberg.

The Stuttgart police were racist and anti-Semitic towards the Jewish Displaced Persons (DP). Police advisor Julius Schumm explained that the population is demanding the immediate evacuation of the Jews from the DP camp in Obere Reinsburgstrasse in order to guarantee public safety . A day later, on March 29, 1946, a black market raid was carried out there. The Auschwitz survivor Shmuel Dancyger (Samuel Danziger) was shot in the head by a Stuttgart police officer under unexplained circumstances. Jewish camp residents were injured, some seriously. Some police officers were also injured. The commander in chief of the US troops in Europe, Joseph T. McNarney, then forbade German police officers from entering all DP camps in the US zone .

Between 1985 and 1988 the building was renovated and then the service building of the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of the Interior.

Place of remembrance in the Hotel Silber

In 2007 the plan to reorganize the area adjacent to the Breuninger department store was presented. The state of Baden-Württemberg and the Breuninger company wanted to invest 270 million euros there in order to build ministries, shops, bars, pubs, restaurants and a luxury hotel. The Hotel Silber, an office building owned by the Landesstiftung, was supposed to be demolished. In the new building, a memorial of the House of History Baden-Württemberg on the Nazi past of the Hotel Silber was to be created.

The “ Hotel Silver Hotel Learning and Memorial Site Initiative ” has been campaigning for the building since February 2009 and the “Group of Fifty” before and during the state elections in March 2011.

In 2011, the newly elected state government decided to keep the building.

In 2017/18 the east wing was rebuilt according to plans by Wandel Lorch Architects . The bricked up former entrance to the inn at the corner of Holzstrasse and Dorotheenstrasse has been reopened and now forms the main entrance. A textile banner above the former bay indicates the permanent exhibition “Police and Persecution”. The layout of the former restaurant was restored for the entrance foyer on the ground floor. In the remaining part of the floor, two seminar rooms and three further rooms have been created. In the basement there is a cloakroom, sanitary facilities and technical systems.

The floor plan from the Nazi era was only "largely" preserved on the first floor. The second floor was converted into a room for temporary exhibitions.

On December 3, 2018, the place of remembrance opened, which deals with the persecution of the police in the Hotel Silber and partly in the hospital courtyard.

The historical building fabric

When the damage was mapped in the summer of 1945, the house was classified as "moderately severe" damage, and in October of the same year it was said "moderate, also to be preserved". Photos from that year show that the eastern part of the building was preserved up to the roof, the western part up to the third floor of four. The same is evident from the plans of the architect who led the reconstruction. On July 8, 1953, the Stuttgarter Zeitung wrote in view of the ongoing renovation work on the eastern wing of the building: “The façade, which dates from 1898, will be freed from its neo-Renaissance stone ornamentation. Instead of the sausage-like bay windows (...) normal house corners are being created again. The large balcony above the main entrance is also already removed. In its place a small roof will be attached (…) ”- which can still be seen today.

In the basement, the load-bearing walls, the supports and most of the door openings correspond to a plan from 1941 (Stuttgart City Archives), only a few partition walls of the storage cells and walls to the middle corridor were removed after the war. It is currently unclear whether the plaster from the time it was used by the Gestapo is still under the current paintwork of the former cells - possibly with drawings and inscriptions by the prisoners at the time.

In the basement of the east wing of the building, all layers of the facade including the rustication have been preserved. In the interior of the east wing, the original building structure, at least with the main load-bearing walls and the staircase, persists across all floors.

A steel cell door with numerous incised messages from prisoners has been in the Stuttgart City Archives since 1970. It was shown and commented on in an exhibition on the history of Stuttgart in the Third Reich at the beginning of the 1980s.

She collected information about Jewish associations, emigrants - about every variant of Jewish life and evaluated them. The Gestapo later organized executive measures with the help of other branches of the police and public administration. It is questionable whether she - apart from the management level around Himmler and Heydrich - played a decisive role in the conception of Jewish policy. What is certain, however, is that the Gestapo became the most important executive organ of this policy and pushed it forward in its own way, by taking unauthorized measures or issuing bans. The SD and Gestapo suggested that the ministerial bureaucracy enact new legal norms hostile to Jews. The working relationships between SD and Gestapo worked very well overall. "

From an" army of informers "who claim total surveillance which the Gestapo carried out omnipresent, in view of these figures, there is no question of it. Nevertheless, the V-people's success was remarkable. Many of the Gestapo's successes in investigations can be traced back to information from informants. The informants from other branches of the NSDAP also contributed to this success, above all from the SD, which operated a comprehensive network of persecution. The V-people of the SD had the goal of penetrating the most diverse social structures as comprehensively and preventively as possible. It is assumed that the SD entertained around 30,000 informants, whose reports seldom initiated state police investigations, but favored the division of labor surveillance of society in the Nazi state and supplemented the Gestapo's agent activities. The Gestapo informants must also include the network of block and cell leaders who acted as contact points for informers or carried out observations themselves or obtained information which they then passed on to the Gestapo.
