The chancellery was established in November 1934 in Berlin as a separate agency, which was parallel to the German Reich Chancellery under Hans Heinrich Lammers and the Nazi Party Chancellery (until 1941: "Staff of the Deputy Führer"), led by Martin Bormann.[1] The Kanzlei des Führers was headed by SS-Obergruppenführer Philipp Bouhler, who bore the title of Chef der Kanzlei des Führers der NSDAP.[2] His adjutant was SS-Sturmbannführer Karl Freiherr Michel von Tüßling.[3] Originally the KdF operated out of their Berlin office at Lützow Ufer.[4]
