Execution of Wolfram Sievers - Nazi Medical Experiments & Ahnenerbe Research - World War 2
Wolfram Sievers was born on 10 July 1905 and his father was a Protestant church musician. He joined the Nazi Party in 1929 and quickly made a career there when in 1933 he became a head of Externsteine Foundation established by Heinrich Himmler to study sandstone rock formation in the Teutoburg Forest. Heinrich Himmler was satisfied with Sievers’s work and in 1935 Himmler appointed Sievers a general secretary of the Ahnenerbe. The Ahnenerbe was the SS political-propaganda association which promoted the racial doctrines of the Nazi party and supported the idea that an ancient Aryan race is biologically superior to other racial groups and modern Germans were its descendants.
In 1943 Sievers was appointed a director of Institute for Military Scientific Research which conducted inhuman medical experiments on prisoners during the war such as high-altitude experiments or the so-called freezing experiment.
Sievers was one of those responsible for the murder of male and female Auschwitz Jewish prisoners for the so-called “ Jewish skeleton collection” which was to be housed at the Reich University of Strasbourg. After the war, Wolfram Sievers was arrested and was accused of war crimes, crimes against humanity and membership in the criminal organization the SS. In summer 1947 a tribunal found Sievers guilty of crimes against humanity and sentenced him to death by hanging. The verdict was carried out on 2 June, 1948 in Landsberg Prison.
