The documents from the cache show that the local NSV office was divided into eight cells, Blank told Westfalenpost, and that its alleged boss - the signatory of several of the documents - was employed by a German federal agency after the war and died in the mid-1960s. Its activities included providing food and gas masks, medical treatment for the victims of bombing raids and evacuation of children to rural areas. Although the Nazis didn't initially include welfare in their political program, the NSV became a popular success according the European Holocaust Research Infrastructure (EHRI) its purpose was to supplant organizations such as the Red Cross and church charities and to spread Nazi ideology through welfare work. The NSV was an extremely powerful agency of the Nazi Party within Germany and had about 17 million members in 1943, Blank said.

"This finding is historically and scientifically significant," he said in an email. This was a national welfare organization run by the Nazis, whose formal name was the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, or NSDAP (in English, the National Socialist German Workers' Party). Research has found that the house once served as a local office of the Nationalsozialistische Volkswohlfahrt, or NSV, Korthals said. Experts from the archives have taken 12 boxes from the site and will examine the Nazi-era artifacts.
