Archival history

Curt Heinemann-Grüder (born September 5, 1880 in Erfurt, died July 10, 1958 in Berlin, married July 28, 1917 with Ise Ina-Marie Grüder) studied medicine in Berlin after passing the Abitur examination in Erfurt. From 1903 he was a medical officer with various regiments in Thorn, Pasewalk (cuirassier regiment "Queen" 1910 - 1911) and Berlin, after a time at the surgical clinic of the University of Giessen again in Berlin, as a staff doctor at the surgical clinic of the Charité. <br /><br />In the First World War he participated as a surgeon in a medical company, where he was first deployed (1914 - 1915) in a field hospital on the western front (Bapaume, Arondissement Arras, Departement Pas-de-Calais) and thus in the region in which the front line ran between the German and Allied troops. <br />In the years 1916 to 1918 he headed the institution in Turkey, which was established on 4 July 1916 as the Deutsches Ortslazarett Smyrna and renamed the Deutsches Etappenlazarett Smyrna in January 1917. It was under the command of the Vth Ottoman Army. <br /><br /> Probably from his time in Pasewalk came his personal and sometimes very cordial contact to members of the Imperial House. In the second half of the 1920s he repeatedly stayed at Haus Doorn and provided medical services. <br /><br />At the end of the 1920s and the beginning of the 1930s, he was chief physician of the Potsdam Care Hospital in the rank of an Oberregierungsmedizinalrat, in the years 1931 to 1934 at the same time executive chairman of the Reichsmedizinalbeamtenbund. After a short membership of the Luftwaffe for about one year, from which he was dismissed in 1935 due to his membership in a lodge, he worked from 1938 until May 1945 as a colonel in the III Army Corps at Hohenzollerndamm, Berlin. After that he lived as a practicing doctor in Potsdam. <br />In particular during the Second World War, Heinemann-Grüder was able to intervene repeatedly in the humanitarian field and help persons threatened or harassed by state organs in various ways (copies of corresponding letters of thanks to the wife and son of Heinemann-Grüder are part of the inventory file). <br /><br />On April 10, 1922, Heinemann-Grüder had been admitted to the Johannis Lodge "Friedrich Wilhelm zur Morgenröte" in Berlin. The admission form with a short curriculum vitae (3 February 1922) as well as several letters of approval from lodge members regarding the application for admission can be found in the files of the Johannisloge: GStA PK, FM 5.2, B 34 Johannisloge Friedrich Wilhelm zur Morgenröte, Berlin No. 42. <br /><br />During his war missions in France and Turkey, but also during his stays in Haus Doorn, Curt Heinemann-Grüder kept very detailed diary records, which were certainly seen in the context of the historiography of the First World War or the imperial family and were therefore expressly intended for posterity. This is indicated not only by the careful management, numbering and foliation (probably by subsequent stamping), but also by the corresponding indications which Curt Heinemann-Grüder had given on the intention sheets of his diaries to keep these records (and photographs) (e.g. GStA PK, VI. HA Familienarchive und Nachlässe, Nl Heinemann-Grüder Nr. 16, Nr. 37) and even individual diary entries themselves, such as "Sonntag, 13. Dezember 1914. It becomes more and more difficult to find something in the daily monotony from which one can scratch together material for a few lines. If it really comes to pass, as is now assumed here, that we will still be here in March next year, I will probably give up writing all the time" (GStA PK, VI. HA Family archives and estates, Nl Heinemann brothers no. 3, fol. 4). <br /><br />After Heinemann-Grüder's death in 1958, the diaries remained in family hands for the time being. In April 2007, together with photographs and, in part, very personal letters from members of the imperial family to Curt Heinemann-Grüder, they were handed over by his son, Rev. em. Curt-Jürgen Heinemann-Grüder, Pforzheim, to the Privy State Archives of Prussian Cultural Heritage as a gift (exc. 14 / 07), supplemented by letters and other written material on Heinemann's activities in the Reichsmedizinalbeamtenbund (exc. 16 / 08). <br /><br />The estate of Heinemann-Grüders' was attached several letters of the GFM Paul von Hindenburg to Colonel (ret.) Hermann Brehme (1863-1932), a brother of Heinemann-Grüders mother.
