"Community for peace and construction"
Hans Winkler was born in Berlin in 1906. After completing his administrative apprenticeship, he worked at the Luckenwalde district court. In November 1933, he was summoned to the town hall to record interrogations. Since these interrogations took place under torture, Winkler's personal-political turn came and he was convinced that he had to resist. Following an idea by Else Samuel, he founded the "Sparverein großer Einsatz" to collect money and food for Jews in hiding.
