Summary[edit]

Description
English: Photo taken 2021 of the exhibits in Hjemmefrontmuseet Rakkestad, a local World War II resistance museum in Rakkestad, Norway, exhibiting approx. 3000 objects related to Nazi Germany's occupation of Norway during the war 1940 – 1945 and the time period:
  • Hand-knit wool mittens with a traditional Norwegian pattern in black and white, but adorned with political symbols and emblems from the war. One pair of mittens is decorated with the German occupiers' Nazi Swastika and the German greeting "heil Hitler." The other pair features King Haakon VII's monogram ("H7") and the Norwegian lion (both royal and national insignia and coat-of-arms) as a patriotic symbol in the resistance struggle. The origin and background story of the mittens with their protest and propaganda symbols are unclear.
Home Front Museum Rakkestad, December 29, 2020: Mittens with Markings. We are somewhat uncertain about the history behind these hand-knit mittens. It is claimed that this was a form of love story that unfolded during the period 1940-1945. The symbols go in both directions, raising the question of whether love went in both directions.
  • Newspaper clippings, printed announcements, messages, appeals, etc., from the war:
    • "President of the Norwegian Craftsmen's Association deposed. K.F.U.K.'s scout department dissolved"; [Reichskommissar's] prohibition against sabotaging the Workers' Confederation, Norwegian Employers' Association, and the Norwegian Craftsmen's Association – and the pardon of condemned union members
    • "Appeal to all members of the National Gathering" to remain calm and composed and stand together behind the Leader, signed by R.J. Fuglesang, NS's general secretary, Oslo, May 4, 1945
    • Announcement from General von Falkenhorst on August 16, 1943, about the decision to send Norwegian officers to internment camps in Germany
    • "Mobilization of dogs for the Wehrmacht" from the Chief of Police on August 7, 1943
    • "Civil air defense."
  • IMI oppvask rensemiddel ("IMI dishwashing cleanser"), wartime surrogat product


Norsk bokmål: Foto tatt sommeren 2021 av utstilte gjenstander i Hjemmefrontmuseet Rakkestad, et lokalt krigshistorisk museum i Rakkestad, Norge. Museet presenterer rundt 3000 gjenstander fra Norge under andre verdenskrig, Nazi-Tysklands okkupasjon av landet, hjemmefronten og motstandskampen i perioden 1940–45 og fra tida like etter krigen:
  • Hjemmestrikka ullvotter med tradisjonelt norsk mønster i svart og hvitt, men med politike symboler og emblemer fra krigen. Det ene votteparet er dekorert med de tyske okkupantenes nazistiske hakekors og den tyske hilsenen «heil Hitler». Det andre paret med kong Haakon VIIs monogram («H7») og norsk løve som patriotisk symbol i motstandskampen. Opphavet og bakgrunnshistorien til vottene er uklar; kanskje de er lagd som protest- eller propaganda-markeringer under krigen, kanskje er det replikaer strikka siden?
Hjemmefrontmuseet Rakkestad 29. desember 2020: Votter med markeringer. Vi er litt usikre på historien bak disse hjemmestrikkede vottene. Det hevdes at dette var en form for kjærlighetshistorie som utspant seg i tiden 1940-1945. Tegnene går jo i begge retninger, og da blir spørsmålet hvorvidt kjærligheten gikk i begge retninger.
  • Avisutklipp, trykte bekjentgjørelser, meldinger, opprop med mer fra krigen (jamfør liknende eksempler fra museet):
    • Norges håndververkerforbunds president avsatt. K.F.U.K.'s speideravdeling opløst; [Reichskommissars] forbud mot å sabotere Arbeidernes faglige Landsorganisasjon, Norsk Arbeidsgiverforening og Norges Håndverkerforbund – og benådningen av dødsdømte fagforeningsfolk
    • Appell til alle medlemmer av Nasjonal Samling om å forholde seg rolig og besindig og stå sammen bak Føreren, undertegnet R. J. Fuglesang, NS ' generalsekretær, Oslo 4. mai 1945
    • Bekjentgjørelse fra general von Falkenhorst 16. august 1943 om beslutningen å sende norske offiserer til fangeleir i Tyskland
    • Mønstring av hunder til Wehrmacht fra Politipresidenten 7. august 1943
    • Sivilt luftvern.
  • IMI oppvask rensemiddel, erstatningsvare og surrogatprodukt på grunn av varemangelen og rasjoneringa under krigen
