I am writing a book on the Liberation of the city of Zwolle, Holland, by Canadian private Leo Major on the 14th of April 1945.

I am trying to find out who were the commanding officers of the Wehrmacht posted in Zwolle at that period and who was in charge of the Gestapo there.

If someone has this information and more details, I will be very grateful to receive it.

You may find useful information at the municipal archives. They have a historical section:

also a link for April 14th 1945 in Zwolle.

Hope this helps.
Let me know when you publish your book. I love Zwolle.
