Summary/Abstract: The present study proposes a reconstruction and presentation of the context and objectives pursued by the Reich when appointing the SS police attachés at the German legation in Bucharest in the period 1940-1944. Using unpublished German and Romanian archival sources it examines the attributes and activity of these attachés in Romania, the manner in which they collaborated with the Romanian authorities, the perception of their presence and their activity in various political and diplomatic circles, and last but not least, the effect of their presence in Romania upon the relations between the principal institutions of the Third Reich, namely the Foreign Ministry and the Reich Security Central Office (RSHA).
