1924, when Hitler was jailed for treason in Landsberg Castle, he began a love relationship with Rudolf Hess, who was nicknamed “Fraulein Anna” and “Black Emma” by other Nazis. Their sexual relationship endured for many years until Hess, who was prone to hysterics became an embarrassment to the Nazi leader.
However, even when his career was scuppered, Hess remained devoted to “his Führer”, claiming they “had shared a beautiful human experience to the very end”.
By the early 1930s, the homosexual ethos at the top of the Nazi Party was so evident that one anti-Nazi newspaper called the political organisation “The Brotherhood of Poofs”. The media ridicule became so widespread that Hitler decided to do something drastic to change public perceptions.
