Adolf von Bomhard

Adolf von Bomhard (6 January 1891 in Augsburg – 19 July 1976) was an SS-Gruppenführer and Generalleutnant of the Ordnungspolizei (Orpo; order police) in Nazi Germany. In the post-war era he was Bürgermeister of Prien am Chiemsee.

During the First World War, Bomhard saw service as an officer in the Bavarian Army, eventually finishing the war as adjutant to Franz Ritter von Epp. Bomhard would later write and publish the history of his regiment. Retaining that position until October 1943, Bomhard took an important role in ideological instruction of the Ukrainian police in the Nazi Weltanschauung.

After the Second World War ended, Bomhard served between 1960 and 1966 as mayor of Prien am Chiemsee and received honorary citizenship there in 1971 which was posthumously revoked by the city council in 2013. He was also involved in societies for former members of the police.
