[edit] Sigrun Schleipfer
Sigrun Schleipfer (nee Hammerbacher), now referring to herself as "Sigrun Freifrau von Schlichting" or "Sigrun von Schlichting") (daughter of Völkisch writer Dr. Hans Wilhelm Hammerbacher). He is thought to be a former NSDAP district leader [1]
Adolf met Sigrun at meetings of a related organisation , the Gode-Orden (Gothi-Order), which proagated a similar mixture of occult "Völkisch" thinking.
In 1977 she founded the 'Gemeinschaft zur Erhaltung der Burgen' (Society for the Conservation of Castles), which proclaims castles to be among the "last paradises of the romantic era" in this cold modern age and had as its primary aim the purchase and restoration of a castle for the Order. In Yule 1995, the society finally aquired the castle of Rothenhorn in Szlichtyngowa in Poland, a run-down structure dating back to the 12th century, though most of the complex dates from the 16th century.
[edit] Grandmasters
Since 1976 Adolf and Sigrun have served as the "Grandmasters" of the order.
Adolf also revived the High Armanen Order (HAO).
They have also been, for many years, reprinting List's works.
