List of Gauleiters

The List of Gauleiter enumerates 114 men who held the Nazi Party (NSDAP) senior regional leader rank of Gauleiter under Adolf Hitler, from the reestablishment of the party in February 1925 to the fall of the Nazi regime in May 1945. It includes those that served in Germany proper and in those territories that were incorporated into Germany from 1935 to 1944. However, it does not include the Gauleiter of the separate Austrian Nazi Party (DNSAP) in the sovereign state of Austria prior to its annexation by Germany in the Anschluss of March 1938.

Of the 44 incumbent Gauleiter who survived the Second World War, 13 committed suicide around the time that Nazi Germany surrendered, eight were executed by the Allies after the war, one was executed by the SS in the closing days of the war and one died in captivity in the Soviet Union. By 1954, when Karl Wahl became the first former Gauleiter to publish his memoirs, eight were still missing, three were in prison and the remaining ten had been imprisoned and released.[1]
