Manfred von Knobelsdorff


Manfred von Knobelsdorff, Lieutenant Colonel Waffen-SS, oversaw much of Wewelsburg Castle from February 12, 1935 through January 24, 1938, where he presided over several ceremonies. At some point during this period, Siegfried Taubert temporarily succeeded Knobelsdorff.
He is believed to have been a follower of Irminism.
His wife Ilse was the sister of Minister of Agriculture Walther Darré.
