Radio Königsberg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Radio Königsberg was a radio station which transmitted news related to Germany and Nazism during World War II. The radio station transmitted in Swedish; the purpose was to gain Swedish support for Germany but most of all for Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party.

Radio Königsberg was originally situated in Berlin but moved to Königsberg (present-day Kaliningrad) when the Allies started to bomb Berlin. When the Red Army approached Königsberg, Radio Königsberg moved to Oslo and transmitted from there until World War II ended.

Among the people involved in Radio Königsberg were Dagmar Kronstedt, Thorolf Hillblad, Elin Svensson, Anna-Lisa Gerloff and Gösta Richter.
