In November 1936, Gauleiter Fritz Wächtler dedicated the Hauzenberg district house.[3] In June 1940, the local National Socialists organized a slide show titled Weltpirat England and U-Boot auf Kaperfahrt. Party leader Heilmaier seized the opportunity to announce regulations about how to deal with Polish farm laborers and prisoners of war.[4]
