Eugen Leibfried (16 April 1897 – 12 October 1978) was a German politician of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and former member of the German Bundestag.[1]

Life

Prior to joining politics, he was a farmer.[2]

After 1945 he joined the CDU and became a member of the district council of the district of Mosbach in 1946. In 1949 he was elected to the first German Bundestag in the Sinsheim constituency with 37.8% of the vote.[3] In the 1953 election he was able to maintain his direct mandate. On 7 October 1953 Baden-Württemberg's Prime Minister Gebhard Müller appointed him to his cabinet as the Minister of Agriculture.[4] Because of his ministerial activities in the state of Baden-Württemberg, Leibfried resigned from his office as a member of the Bundestag on 21 June 1956. From 1956 to 1972 he was then a member of the Bundestag of Baden-Württemberg.[5]

In 1975 he was awarded with the Order of Merit of Baden-Württemberg.[6]
