People of the Red Orchestra


This is a list of participants, associates and helpers of the Red Orchestra, or the Red Chapel as it was known in Germany. Red Orchestra was the name given by the Gestapo to members of the German resistance to Nazism and anti-Nazi resistance movements in allied or occupied countries during World War II. Some of the people on this list were arrested by the Gestapo. As the SS-Sonderkommando also took action against information networks within Switzerland, people who worked there are included here.
