Description

Na zdjęciu widoczny również dowódca struktur Selbstschutzu w mieście Toruń, stadtführer Rudolf Preuss (czwarty z prawej, w białej koszuli). Zdjęcie jest elementem tzw.

Zdjęcie pochodzi z archiwum Głównej Komisji Badania Zbrodni Hitlerowskich w Polsce.
English: Inspection of paramilitary "Volksdeutscher Selbstschutz" unit in Toruń done by the organization’s commander – SS-Oberführer Ludolf-Hermann von Alvensleben (first from the right). Fourth from the right, in white shirt, walks Selbstschutz leader in Toruń, stadtführer Rudolf Preuss. Selbstschutz was a paramilitary formation composed of members of the German minority in pre-war Poland. Between September 1939 and April 1940 Selbstschutz - together with other Nazi-German formations - murdered tens of thousands of Poles in Pomerania. During the second world war this photo was placed in so-called "Album of fame of Selbstschutz" (known also as "Alvensleben Album"). After the end of war this album was found and taken over by the Polish authorities. It is now in the archives of the Commission for the Investigation of Nazi Crimes in Poland.
