Willi Graf was a member of the White Rose (Weiße Rose) resistance group in Nazi Germany. Willi Graf's family moved to Saarbrücken in 1922, where his father ran a wine wholesaler's. He went to school at the "Ludwigsgymnasium". It was not long before he joined, at the age of eleven, the "Bund Neudeutschland", a Catholic youth movement for young men in schools of higher learning, which was banned after Hitler and the Nazis came to power in 1933.
