Walter Theil (politician)
Walter Theil (* around 1924 ; † January 2005 ) was a German local politician of the SPD and mayor of Barsinghausen .
Life
Walter Theil was Mayor of Barsinghausen from June 1964 to March 1980. The Social Democrat was initially elected to his office without dissenting votes and was confirmed in office three times unanimously and without opposing candidates during three further terms.
After the end of his political career, Theil devoted himself to the town twinning of Barsinghausen, especially with the French town of Mont-Saint-Aignan.
In 1999 Theil was awarded the Barsinghausen honorary citizenship. He was also awarded the never-before-ever golden badge of honor with diamonds.
Walter Theil died at the age of 81.
Mayor part way
At the beginning of October 2015, the town council of Barsinghausen proposed that the Niedermühlenteich development area to the west of Erfurter Strasse, which was planned at the time, be named as Bürgermeister-Theil-Weg in memory of the Social Democrats. A dead end street to the west of Erfurter Straße is now called Walter-Theil-Straße .
