German National Party

The German Nationalist Party (German: Deutsche Nationalpartei, DNP, Czech: Německá národní strana) was a First Republic political party in Czechoslovakia, representing German population of Sudetenland. Its chairman and political face was Rudolf Lodgman von Auen.

This article is about the German minority party that existed in Czechoslovakia from 1919 to 1933. For the Deutschnationale Partei that existed in Austria before 1920, see German-National Party. For the Deutschnationale Volkspartei in the Weimar Republic, see German National People's Party.

In elections, the DNP worked together with the German National Socialist Workers' Party (DNSAP). Both parties were outlawed in 1933. A faction of the DNP then entered the Sudetendeutsche Heimatfront of Konrad Henlein.

The main party newspaper was the Nordböhmisches Tagblatt (North Bohemian Daily) published in Děčín.[1]
