Curriculum Vitae
As head of the Feldkirchen political branch, Weingerl played a decisive role in preventing the Nazi putsch in July 1934, which the Nazis did not forget.
So he was removed from office after the Anschluss and arrested a short time later. On December 14, 1939, he was sent to Sachsenhausen concentration camp
[He told his men] to remain calm, but to stick together and stay in contact with each other, as the National Socialist government would not be able to hold out for long and things would soon have to change again.
There is no more consideration, for a free Austria, the united front!
All Catholics into the united front, there is still time, God save Austria!
Davorian Martin Weingerl was arrested on September 8, 1938 in the Heiligenkreuz church in Villach and sentenced before a special court for 'preparation for high treason'. Unfortunately, the charge and the verdict have not been preserved. On December 14, 1939, he was deported as a 'protected prisoner' to the Sachsenhausen concentration camp
