History

In 1936, the intensification of Anti-Jewish policies led the Reichsverband der nichtarischen Christen and similar smaller organizations to form one large federation, which was approved by the responsible office of the Reich Propaganda Ministry in agreement with the Gestapo. The new association was called the Paulusbund, founded by dr. Richard Wolff. In 1936, the Paulsbund had approximately eighty thousand members. The Paulusbund existed for only six months.
