Martin Mutschmann (9 March 1879 – 14 February 1947) was the Regional Leader (Gauleiter) of the state of Saxony (Gau Sachsen) during the time of the Third Reich. Mutschmann was nominated Gauleiter of Saxony in 1925. He maintained this position until the end of World War II.
Generally his political activity concentrated on Saxony rather than on
Germany as a whole. On 30 January 1933, after the Nazis came to power, Mutschmann was appointed Nazi Governor (Reichsstatthalter) of Saxony. Mutschmann was sentenced to death in Moscow and shot on February 14, 1947.
