FRANZ XAVER SCHWARZ

'Franz Xaver Schwarz' (27 November, 1875 - 2 December, 1947) was a German politician who served as Reichsschatzmeister (National Treasurer) of the Nazi Party during most of the Party's existence.
Born in Günzburg, Schwarz was only one of four people to have held the rank of ''SS-Oberstgruppenführer'' and, of the four, the only one to hold the rank as an honorary title without equivalent ''Ordnungspolizei'' or ''Waffen-SS'' rank. Between 1934 and 1945, Schwarz also held several titles and positions in the government of Nazi Germany.
Schwarz died in an Allied internment camp near Regensburg.
