Right-wing organizations

Jungdeutschland-Bund (1911 – 1933) – RR
On January 1911, Field Marshal Colmar Freiherr von der Goltz founded the Jungdeutschland-Bund as an umbrella organization for patriotic youth organizations on the initiative of the Prussian War Ministry. The founding statement of December 1911 stated: “We need a stronger generation for the future of our people”. The organization peaked in 1914 with around 745 000 members across Germany. After the seasoned veteran of the fighting in the Baltics, Count Rüdiger von der Goltz took over the leadership in 1924, the organization lined up and allied with other right-wing and völkisch youth organizations. Jungdeutschland was finally absorbed into the Hitlerjugend in 1933, and thus ceased to exist.

Deutsche Jugendbund (c. early 1900s) – RRRR
Very little is known about this organization for the time being.

Bund Der Aufrechten (1918 – 1922) – RRR
Bund Der Aufrechten was a small nationalist and monarchist organization founded on November 9, 1918, the very same night as Kaiser Wilhelm II abdicated. The leader during the organizations short existence was Ernst Pfeiffer, a journalist and writer from Berlin. When foreign minister Walther Rathenau was murdered in June 1922, many right-wing parties and organizations were banned all over Germany, so also was Bund Der Aufrechten. However, in 1945 one of Pfeiffers disciples, Heinrich von Massenbach gathered the followers and members of the old organization and founded the monarchist organization Tradition und Leben, which exists until this day, and is the largest monarchist organizations in Germany today.
