Andreas Hermes (16 July 1878 – 4 January 1964) was a German agricultural scientist and politician. In the Weimar Republic, he was a member of several governments, serving as minister of food/nutrition and minister of finance for the Catholic Zentrum. During the rule of the Nazi Party, Hermes was part of the right-wing resistance, for which he was imprisoned and sentenced to death, but never executed thanks to the intervention of his wife. After World War II, he co-founded the Christian Democratic Union in East Germany. Source: Wikipedia (en)
