What happened to former section members, excluded in the Nazi era with involvement of the Alpine Club in Frankfurt on Main? What happened to our Jewish members, potentially active in the mountaineering, the skiing or the youth groups prior 1933? Who has survived, who was murdered? This website is aimed at providing some answers.

Many people and institutions have supported our investigations – with information, hints, photographs, donations and contact data. Therefore, we cordially say: Thank you!

How have other sections of the German Alpine Club documented their history during the Nazi era? Here a (certainly incomplete) overview.

With this website we want to inform, raise interest – and of course encourage you to participate because the project is hoped to grow further.
