In Horst Seehofer's place of residence Ingolstadt, the CSU has applied for him to be made an honorary citizen. SPD Lord Mayor (OB) Christian Scharpf signaled approval. The ex-Green member of the Bundestag, Agnes Krumwiede, on the other hand, demanded in a motion: Before the city council appoint new honorary citizens, old burdens must be removed, such as the honorary citizenship of old Nazi leaders: Mayor Josef Listl, who ruled during the Nazi era, who was again after the war functioned as mayor for the CSU, as well as Ludwig Liebls, a confidante of Adolf Hitler, who founded the Nazi local newspaper "Donaubote" and the National Socialist German Medical Association. There was criticism of the city's dealings with these Nazis 30 years ago. In Ingolstadt it is argued that honorary citizenship expires with death. The Greens demand that the city must finally Adolf Hitler,Paul von Hindenburg and all Nazi functionaries "symbolically deny" this honor. The city museum website listed them until recently. Ingolstadt is the only major Bavarian city that has not distanced itself so far, said Krumwiede. SPD parliamentary group leader Christian De Lapuente intervened against the application: »I find the time of the application very unhappy. Now the Seehofer application is being mixed up with the former Nazi honorary citizens. «Krumwiede now wants to postpone the application.“I think the timing of the application is very unfortunate.
