Josef Steinhübl

Josef Steinhübl (26 March 1902 – 18 April 1984) was a German politician and Catholic priest.

[1][2] When the KdP moved towards Nazism under Franz Karmasin, Steinhübl stood out as the sole KdP leader that publicly criticized the introduction of the Führer principle (albeit in vague terms).

[1] On 1 October 1939 he was named inspector for German schools in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Banská Bystrica.

He was detained at a labour camp in Ústie nad Oravou 1948–1949 and then jailed at Leopoldov until July 1955.
