Life and work.
Brauner was born in Vienna. At work he instigated his colleagues to disobey the orders for air-raid protection and to extort benefits for heavy labour through a strike. He also claimed that World War II was caused ″by the fault of the Germans″. Therefore, in January 1940 he was arrested with the accusation of ″subversive activities″ against the German Reich, interrogated by Gestapo and finally deported to the KZ Ravensbrück. In 1942 Friedrich Brauner was murdered by the Nazis in the so-called Sonderbehandlung program Action 14f13 at Bernburg Euthanasia Centre.
