Franz Hofer (November 27, 1902 – February 18, 1975) was, in the time of the Third Reich, the Nazi Gauleiter of the Tyrol and Vorarlberg.
As the Nazi party chief for the Tirol/Vorarlberg province he was the most powerful figure in the region.As the area's supreme Nazi, Hofer dealt directly with Hitler or with the Führer's deputy, Martin Bormann.
Hofer was not only the party chief but the Reichskommissar in charge of the Tirol-Vorarlberg defences.His region embraced much of the suspected National Redoubt.
Indeed, Hofer might well be considered the father of the Redoubt.
