United Federation of Christian Trade Unions in Germany
The United Federation of Christian Trade Unions in Germany (German: Gesamtverband der christlichen Gewerkschaften Deutschlands, GcG) was a national trade union federation in Germany. The federation was established in 1901 by 23 independent unions. It initially had a membership of 77,000, but grew to 350,000 in 1912, and then peaked at 1,100,000 in 1919. It gradually lost members over the following decade, and by 1931 was down to 580,000. While it was open to all Christians, 80% of its membership was Catholic. The federation worked closely with the Centre Party, until in 1933 it was dissolved by the Nazi government.
