Hans Wilhelm Münch (14 May 1911 – 2001) was a German Nazi Party member who worked as a SS physician during World War II at the Auschwitz concentration camp from 1943 to 1945 in Nazi–occupied Poland. Münch was nicknamed ''The Good Man of Auschwitz'' for his refusal to assist in the mass murders there. He developed many elaborate ruses to keep inmates alive. He was the only person acquitted of war crimes at the 1947 Auschwitz trials in Kraków, where many inmates testified in his favor. After the war and the trial, he returned to Germany and worked as a practising physician in Roßhaupten in Bavaria. While suffering from Alzheimer's in old age, he made several public remarks that appeared to support Nazi ideology, and was tried for inciting racial hatred and similar charges. Münch was never sentenced, as all courts ruled that he was not of sound mind. He died in 2001. ==Career== After graduating from a gymnasium, Hans Münch studied medicine at Tübingen and Munich universities and became engaged in the political section of the Reichsstudentenführung (Reich’s leadership of university students).〔(''Politischer Leiter der Reichsstudentenführung'' )〕 In 1934, he joined the NSDStB.- Nationalsozialistischer Deutscher Studentenbund (National Socialist German Students' League) and the NSKK - Nationalsozialistisches Kraftfahrerkorps (National Socialist Motor Corps). In May 1937, he joined the NSDAP. He received his doctor's degree and married a physician in 1939. When World War II began, he replaced country doctors in their practices in the Bavarian countryside as they had been inducted into the army; Münch's attempt to enlist in the Wehrmacht was rejected as his work as a doctor was considered too important.〔(Jewish Virtual Library Biography )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hans Münch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
