Siegfried Wolfgang Fehmer (10 January 1911 – 16 March 1948) was a German SS officer during World War II. He was stationed in Norway during the occupation by Nazi Germany, and by the end of the war he was heading the Oslo branch of the Gestapo from its headquarters in Victoria Terrasse, Oslo. Along with Josef Terboven, Fehmer was considered one of the most despised members of the German occupation forces in Norway.[1][2]
