In addition, he was a member of the board of directors of the National Association for Internal Mission .

In the early 1930s, Stiehr made a name for himself in his homeland by participating in violent clashes between the National Socialists and political opponents.

After the National Socialists came to power in the spring of 1933, Stiehr became a member of the district council of the Segeberg district. In his capacity as district leader, Stiehr set up the Kuhlen concentration camp near Rickling .

From September 1939 he led SA Standard 213, which was stationed in Segeberg. From the end of March 1940, Stiehr headed the Gaustabsamt for the Gauleitung Sachsen for a short time and from the beginning of August 1941 was a member of an advisory committee of the Berlin Reich War Damage Office.
