Federal Ministry for Matters of the Marshall Plan (Germany)

The Federal Ministry of Marshall Plan Affairs was a ministry of the Federal Republic of Germany charged with overseeing the rebuilding of the new republic using money and aid given by the United States as part of the European Recovery Program (also called Marshall Plan).

Founded in 1949, the Ministry was renamed Ministry for Economic Cooperation. In 1957 it was transformed into the Minister for Federal Patrimony, which existed until 1969.

The first and only Minister was Franz Blücher (FDP and later FVP), who also was Vice Chancellor
