Nicolaus von Below - what did his wife look like?

[Geoff Walden]

I am looking for identified pictures of the wife of Hitler's Luftwaffe adjutant Nicolaus von Below. There is a woman who appears often in casual photos taken at Hitler's Berghof home (from Eva Braun's photo albums), and also in Eva Braun's "home movies" in the US National Archives. I believe this woman may be Frau Below, but I've seen only one photo that supposedly identifies her (and I'm not sure that's her).

Does anyone have any photos of her ... are there any photos of her in Below's post-war book?

Hi Geoff In the book AT HITLERS SIDE by von Below there is a photo of his wife taken at the Berghof summer of 1938,also with the Fuhrer eating cake etc. She seems to have been well liked as she is with Luft General Stumpff and his wife also with Speer and I beleive she is in the photo with Eva Braun and the Fuhrer on his Birthday because von Below is there with Engel,Bormann,Hoffmann,Brandt and Speer. By the way she is pretty but not beautiful,hope this helps . Harmel

I am just reading his book and there are indeed at least two very good pictures of her included; I wouldn't be surprised by now there are some on the net being this post is 8 years old.

I agree she was pretty; a fitting wife for the time IMO.

I have an interview from the Munich Archives that she gave in the 70s about the Weddings at the Berghof in 1944 where she talks about the Fegelein, Darges, Hewell and Wunsche nuptials....sadly very little detail on the latters however. If anyone would like to see this, feel free to PM me.

Absolutely I would like to see that for a quick read.
