the wife of the famous architect Paul Ludwig Troost. She became a close friend of Adolf Hitler. They shared the same taste in decoration and design. He asked for her to arrange the inside of the Berghof. She met him regularly in the Reichskanzlei or in the Berghof. She was one of the most frequent visitor. They surely talked a lot about art and achitecture. He made her a professor and high ranking personality in the field of art.
Her husband died in 1934, he was pretty old but she was still young. At the end of the war she was only in her 40's. What did she become ? what did she do for a living ? Hitler gave him a lot of honor and money : he gave her 100.000 RM one time. It was a lot of money.
She lived very long. She died in 2004, almost centenary. She should have a lot to tell about Hitler since she saw him many times.
I wonder if she let interviews or writings about that ? It would be very interesting for sure.
Where did she come from ? Gerdy Troost sounds like American (funny) and her family name like hollandese.
She is there accompanying Hitler and Goebbels during a visit in a museum :
