Adolf Ehrecke (14 January 1900 – 12 April 1980) was a German schoolteacher and Nazi Party official who served as the Gauleiter in the Saar from 1929 to 1931 when it was being administered by France and the United Kingdom under a League of Nations mandate. Removed from the educational service and expelled from the Saar for antisemitic propaganda activities, he moved to Kiel where he resumed his career as an educator. During the Second World War, he served as an educational official in the occupied Netherlands. Little is documented about his post-war life.
