Categorie: reportage

Investigative journalist Kevin Magee uncovers the work of Nazi party member and Irish scholar Dr Ludwig Mühlhausen. Mühlhausen spent six weeks in the Gaeltacht hamlet of Teileann in South Donegal in 1937 collecting folklore and improving his Ulster Irish, but that was not the only work he carried out while he was there. As Kevin reveals, in reality he was working as a Nazi spy, gathering information and passing it on to the Third Reich. Kevin first visited Teileann forty years ago to learn Irish. He has continued to visit there ever since and over the years he heard stories of Mühlhausen's visit to the area. Kevin decided to get the bottom of this mysterious tale once and for all. His investigation takes him from Donegal to Dublin and on to Berlin where he uncovers the real work Mühlhausen was involved in in the Nazi Party. Fiosraíonn an t-iriseoir Caoimhín Mag Aoidh scéal Ludwig Mühlhausen, ball den pháirtí Naitsíoch agus scoláire Gaeilge. Chaith Mühlhausen sé seachtaine ar an bhaile bheag Gaeltachta Teileann i nDeisceart Thír Chonaill sa bhliain 1937, ag bailiú béaloidis agus ag cur feabhais ar a chanúint Ultach Ghaeilge ach níorbh é sin an t-aon obair a bhí a dhéanamh aige ansin. Mar a léiríonn Caoimhín, spiaire Naitsíoch a bhí ann, ag bailiú eolais agus a chur ar aghaidh chuig an Tríú Reich. Thug Caoimhín cuairt ar Theileann den chéad uair breis agus dhá scór bliain ó shin agus tá sé ag tarraingt ar an cheantar ó shin. Thar na blianta chuala sé scéalta faoi chuairt an Dr Mühlhausen chun na háite. Bheartaigh Caoimhín na raflaí a fhiosrú agus fírinne an scéil a nochtadh. Tugann an fiosrúchán é ó Thír Chonaill go Baile Átha Cliath agus ar aghaidh go Beirlín, áit a bhfaigheann sé amach faoin phríomhról a bhí ag Mühlhausen sa pháirtí Naitsíoch.
