SS Heimwehr "Danzig" was an SS unit established in the city of DANZIG (today Gdańsk, Poland) before the second world war. It fought with the German army against the Polish Army during the invasion of Poland. After this it became part of the 3rd SS divsion Totenkopf and ceased to exist as an independent unit.
Also known as Heimwehr Danzig (Danzig Home Defense), it was officially established on 20 June 1939, when the Danzig senate under Albert Forster decided to set up its own powerful-armed force; a cadre of this new unit primarily formed the Danzige SS Wachsturmbann "Eimann".
