The undersigned, ‘H. Hiebüke’, was the leader of this women’s group here.

The National Socialist Women’s League (NSF) was the official women’s organisation of the NSDAP and was founded in 1931. Membership of the NSF was voluntary but strongly encouraged, and many women felt pressure to join in order to demonstrate their loyalty to the regime. By 1938, the NSF had over 2 million members.

A truly remarkable map offering plenty of leads for further research!
