Jakob Sporrenberg (born September 16, 1902 in Düsseldorf; died December 6, 1952 in Warsaw) was a German SS-Gruppenführer and Generalleutnant der Polizei as well as member of the Reichstag, who was executed in Poland as a war criminal. From 1919 to 1921 he served as a volunteer with the Grenzschutz Ost and other units.

Sporrenberg participated in the Kapp Putsch in 1920. He joined the Deutschvölkischer Schutz- und Trutzbund in 1921. From there he transferred to the NSDAP in 1922. For “secret organization activities” he was arrested in 1923 during the Ruhr occupation and sentenced in 1924 by a French military court to two years imprisonment and a fine of 1,000 gold marks, but was released again in August 1925. During his imprisonment he joined the Schlageter-Gedächtnisbund. After the party ban he rejoined the NSDAP at the end of 1925 (membership number 25,585) and reactivated his SA membership shortly before. In Düsseldorf he was involved in building up the local party organization, became district leader there and in 1929/30 acting HJ-Gebietsführer. On October 1, 1930 he transferred from the SA to the SS (membership number 3,809), where he initially served part-time and from November 1932 full-time as SS-Führer in Düsseldorf.

From March 1933 to 1945 he was a member of the Reichstag.

From November 1933 to September 1936 he headed SS-Abschnitt XX (Kiel) and also the SS-Kaserne in Kiel. In the interim he was promoted to SS-Brigadeführer at the end of January 1936. Thereafter he was assigned to command SD-Oberabschnitt Nordost (Königsberg) and from September 1938 was also Inspekteur der Sicherheitspolizei und des SD (IdS) in Königsberg.

After the beginning of World War II, Sporrenberg was Höherer SS- und Polizeiführer (HSSPF) “Rhein” from early October 1939 to mid-June 1940 and was promoted to SS-Gruppenführer in early January 1940. After that he was HSSPF “Nordost” until May 1941. From July to August 1941 Sporrenberg was briefly SSPF Weißruthenien and thereafter assigned to Reichskommissar für das Reichskommissariat Ukraine Erich Koch. In July 1943 he was promoted to Generalleutnant der Polizei. As successor to Odilo Globocnik he was SSPF im Distrikt Lublin from August 1943 to November 1944. There he organized Aktion Erntefest, in which over 43,000 Jews were murdered. From November 21, 1944 to May 1945 he was SSPF Südnorwegen. On May 11, 1945 Sporrenberg was captured there and extradited to Poland. A Polish court sentenced him to death in 1950 for planning and participating in Aktion Erntefest. On December 6, 1952 he was executed by hanging in Warsaw.

On February 10, 1942, Adolf Hitler approved the establishment of a Bosnian SS Division composed of Muslims to be deployed against partisans in the Balkans. The approval of the Croatian state followed in March 1943. The establishment order for the Croatian SS Volunteer Legion was dated 10.2.1943. Shortly thereafter, it was decided to use the designation Croatian SS Volunteer Division. The non-commissioned officers were to be volunteer Muslims from the territory of the Independent State of Croatia. For the volunteers, the otherwise applicable SS fitness requirements were suspended; they merely had to be fit for combat duty. The officers as well as the specialist career tracks were staffed with Reich Germans. On April 30, 1943, the division received the designation Croatian SS Volunteer Mountain Division. In June 1943, the division in formation was subordinated to the Commander of Army Area Southern France and relocated to the Mende, Haute Loire, Aveyron and Lozère area. At the Wildflecken/Rhön training ground, the transports arriving from Croatia were assembled. Since volunteer registrations were insufficient, personnel were also taken directly from the Croatian Army. In October 1943, the Waffen-SS divisions were numbered; the division's new designation was now 13th Croatian SS Volunteer Mountain Division. As of December 31, 1943, the division had a strength of 21,065 men, thus 2,000 men over establishment, although there was still a shortage of officers and non-commissioned officers. At the end of January 1944, the division was reported ready for action. In February 1944, the division was relocated to Bosnia to immediately participate in Operation “Wegweiser”. During this operation, the Bosut Forest and several villages north of the Sava were combed through. On April 11, 1944, Operation “Osterei” began. The towns of Janja, Ugljevik and Priboj were captured. From April 26 to May 7, 1944, Operation “Maibaum” lasted, during which strong partisan formations in the Majevica were to be denied crossing over the Drina into Serbia. Heavy fighting ensued, during which the partisans were indeed denied crossing the Drina, but their destruction was not achieved. On May 15, 1944, the division was renamed once again; it now bore the designation 13th Waffen Mountain Division of the SS “Handschar” (Croatian No. 1). On June 8, 1944, Operation “Vollmond” began, intended to destroy three partisan divisions located in the Posavina-Majevica area. The division was to attack from the north and west and push the partisans back to the Drina, resulting in heavy combat. From June 14 to August 6, 1944, Operation “Kornblume” followed, during which partisan formations north of the Sava were engaged. In early September 1944, the division was relocated to the Vukovice-Osmaci-Srebrenica area for refitting. During this period, increasingly evident signs of the division's disintegration appeared. In September 1944 alone, over 2,000 men deserted to the partisans. Through the absorption of soldiers from the dissolved 23rd Waffen Mountain Division of the SS “Kama”, the division could be brought to a strength of 346 officers, 1,950 non-commissioned officers and 18,520 enlisted men. In mid-October 1944, the bulk of the division was set in march to the Agram area to relieve the LXIX Army Corps. During this movement, approximately 1,000 men deserted again. When the division then faced its first deployment against Soviet troops, it largely dissolved. Only the German cadre personnel and some troops remained, so that the division had to withdraw north across the Sava at the end of October. The division remnants were deployed in November 1944 in the Apatin area and near Batina. On November 12, 1944, the division was ordered to turn over its heavy weapons to the 1st Mountain Division, then to be deployed as a battle group east of Fünfkirchen (Pécs) near Batina. This battle group was pushed back under heavy losses to Hercegszöllös. On November 29, 1944, enemy troops occupied Fünfkirchen. The remnants of the division battle group occupied a new line east of Bolmay. From here it was set in march to Barcs. Due to the Russian advance, the division first relocated to the area south of Lake Balaton (Csurgó-Berzencze-Nagykanizsa) and from there, after heavy defensive fighting, to the Margarethen Position between the Drava and Lake Balaton. In this sector, the division could be somewhat refitted through furlough returnees and stragglers. On March 6, 1945, the division then participated in Operation “Frühlingserwachen”, during which the Danube near Baja was to be reached. However, the attack became bogged down in mud on March 7 before Kaposvár. At the end of March 1945, the Red Army became active in the division sector. The division had to withdraw from its positions to the planned Dorothea Position around Bajca. On April 3, the division crossed the Mur, losing its heavy weapons in the process. In the Kaag area, the Reich Defense Position was occupied. The division received replacements here from Volkssturm and Luftwaffe personnel. On May 5, 1945, the last Bosniaks were released from their oath of allegiance so they could make their way home. The remaining remnant of the division began the retreat and occupied the Ursula Position in the Kellersdorf area on May 7, 1945. Near Villach, the remnants were able to escape into British captivity.

During his imprisonment he joined the Schlageter-Gedächtnisbund.
