In accordance with an oral instruction of the Lord State Secretary, I ask you to take part in the letter of the circle leader Dotz-ler of 18.09.194o - sign Kreisleitung Do/St. concerning Schloss Kneschitz for the Strakonitzer Hitlerjugend. I would be grateful if I could receive your statement as soon as possible. BTTAF Group I/5 Prague, 7 February 1941. Originally sent back to the office of Mr. Secretary of State in H a u s e. After a detailed visit of the castle of Knezice by a commission it was found that it is not suitable for housing young people for a longer period of time. For this reason, an occupation of the castle Knezice in the context of the Kinderlandverschaltung was also taken away. An acquisition of the palace for the purposes of Hitler youth is therefore not desirable. In the meantime, circle leader Dotzler has informed that Castle Knezice has now been earmarked for the underbringers of the female employment service, and that this means that the use of the two-wheel drive is guaranteed.
