Curriculum Vitae

Wenzel Beza joined the student fraternity Nordgau Wien while studying to become a teacher in 1904.

Because he is said to have acted "heartlessly and spitefully against National Socialist and nationalist teachers and pupils", he is arrested on March 12, 1938 in his office as regional school inspector and taken to Eisenstadt district court. He was subsequently taken to the Dachau concentration camp on the 2nd Austrian transport on May 24, 1938 and held there until March 13, 1939. After his imprisonment, he was then dismissed without notice and without pay on March 16, 1939 in accordance with Section 411 of the Ordinance on the Reorganization of the Austrian Civil Service
