Common card · No. 374144

Georg Leibbrandt (5 September 1899 – 16 June 1982) was a German interpreter, bureaucrat and ministerial official who was regarded as an expert on Russia during the Nazi era. He occupied leading foreign policy positions in the Nazi Party Office of Foreign Affairs (APA) and in the Reich Ministry for the Occupied Eastern Territories (RMfdbO). Both agencies were headed by Nazi chief ideologist Alfred Rosenberg. Leibbrandt was a participant in the 20 January 1942 Wannsee Conference and was heavily involved in the systematic extermination of the Jews during the Holocaust. In the postwar period, an investigation against Leibbrandt on suspicion of complicity in murder was discontinued; he was never charged or convicted.
