What is "stellenleiter"

Stellenleiter (Area Leader) was a Nazi Party political rank which existed between 1933 and 1938. The rank was created as a mid-level political position intended to replace the older rank of Zellenwart, also known as Zellenleiter. In the early Nazi Party rank organization, the position of Stellenleiter was senior to Mitarbeiter and junior to Amtsleiter.

The rank of Stellenleiter was phased out of the Nazi Party in 1939, replaced by a new series of para-military political ranks.
