Gottfried Lorenz:
Sündenbabel Harburg? - Homosexuellen- und Pädophilen-Skandale in Hamburg-Harburg während der NS-Zeit

Harburg – a Sink of Iniquity? Homosexual and Pedophile Scandals in Hamburg’s Harburg During National Socialism

English abstract

Gottfried Lorenz shows how gay men were prosecuted in rural Hanoverian regions during the Nazi era, using the example of Harburg, which became a district of Hamburg in 1937. His reconstruction of their various fates, filled with local colour, is based on local court files which were originally slated for disposal by the Hamburg city archive.
