- Short Description
- "Friedrich Krebs was the mayor of Frankfurt, Germany from 1933 to 1945. In March 1933, Krebs, a fervent anti-Semite and Nazi, ousted the previous mayor, Ludwig Landmann, who was Jewish. Within two weeks Krebs fired all Jewish city employees, even before the German Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service removed Jews from government service.
In 1933, Krebs established the Frankfurter Modeamt to help make Frankfurt a center for women’s fashion in the Third Reich.
He was a passenger on the Hindenburg on its 1936 maiden voyage from Germany to the United States." - (en.wikipedia.org 12.08.2021) - Entity Encoding
