Germany - Prussia (Weimar Republic): Badge of
the Queen Louise League - 1st type of the Badge.
Diameter: 20mm.
The Queen Louise League (Königin-Luise-Bund)
was founded in 1923 and named itself after Queen
Luise, the wife of Frederick William III of Prussia.
She became idealized for her feminine virtues, her
determination and her love for her country, as well
as for her beauty and her role in the wars against
Napoleon.
The league was monarchist and conservative in
orientation and was close to the DNVP (German
National People's Party).
Many wives of Der Stahlhelm members belonged
to the Queen Louise League and they were, like
their husbands, strongly opposed to democracy
and in favor of German re-armament.
In 1933 the League had reached a total number
of 200.000 members.
The Queen Louise League was disbanded by the
Nazi government in 1934.
