Dr. Hermann Maas (1877-1970) was a German protestant minister, Nazi opponent, and life-long supporter of Jewish-Christian dialogue. In 1950 he was the first gentile German to be formally invited by the newly founded state of Israel. For having helped persecuted Jews in the Nazi era Yad Vashem honoured him as 'Righteous among the Nations' in 1964. See Gutman, I. (ed.), The encyclopedia of the righteous among the nations: rescuers of Jews during the Holocaust. Europe (Part 1) and other countries, Jerusalem, Yad Vashem, 2007, p. 122.
