Reichsleiter

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Reichsleiter was one of the highest political offices of the NSDAP in the time of the German national socialism. The Reichsleiter reported directly to Adolf Hitler and his deputies, in whose order they would fulfill tasks in the entire area assigned to them.

The twenty six established Reichsleiter formed the Reichsleitung of the NSDAP which had its seat at first in the so-called "brown house" in Munich. Reichsleiter was also the highest Nazi Party paramilitary rank, ranking just above the position of Gauleiter.
