Jungdeutsche Partei in Polen (JDP), or the Young German Party in Poland ( Polish: Partia Młodoniemiecka w Polsce), was a Nazi German extreme right-wing political party founded in 1931 by members of the ethnic German minority residing in the Second Polish Republic. [1]

The party was opposed not only to collaboration with Poland, but also, with other German organizations in Poland. [2] Its leader was Rudolf Wiesner (pictured, fourth from the left), a committed Nazi. [3] He was replaced by Max Wambeck from NSDAP on 22 November 1938. [4] After the invasion of Poland Wambeck (fluent in Polish, known as Maksymilian Wambeck locally) [5] served as SS-Obersturmführer in Chodzież in the Gnesen Gau (Polish Gniezno County) interrogating and torturing Armia Krajowa resistance members. [4]

Activities

Sponsored financially by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Nazi Germany, the Jungdeutsche Partei members trained in propaganda, sabotage and espionage activities against the Polish state, [6] smuggled military weapons, [7] and waged a campaign of intimidating other members of the community to leave for Nazi Germany, with tangible incentives. [6] A considerable number of young Polish Germans joined the rank-and-file of the Party during the mid-1930s as a result of Nazi indoctrination and aggressive recruitment. [8] The party had its own flag with JdP symbol in it, celebrated anniversaries (Heldengedenktag), a hymn sung at gatherings (Jungdeutsche marschiert) with a Nazi salute, and its own red armbands similar to NSDAP. [9]

The Jungdeutsche Partei was formed originally in 1921 in Bielsko-Biała as the Deutscher Nationalsozialistischer Verein in Polen. Renamed in 1931 the party gradually expanded its activities to cover most of Upper Silesia with 1,200 members, [10] and other regions such as Greater Poland (since 1934) as well as Pomerania and Volhynia in the following years. [11] [12] The public rallies held by the party were aggressively anti-Polish, rabidly racist, and anti-Jewish; while proclaiming to the world: "We want to be Germans, and nothing but Germans." [13] JDP was dissolved by Adolf Hitler after the invasion of Poland with transfer of its membership to Germany. [14]
