HIDDENSEE'S NAMESAKES: The Hiddensee is named after the island of Hiddensee, a popular tourist destination in the Baltic Sea. However, she was originally named Rudolf Egelhofer, after a German socialist and revolutionary who was born 1896 in Schwabing.

After a failed coup against the Bavarian Soviet Republic, Egelhofer became a commander of city of Munich and commander in chief of the Roten Army. In 1919 after a political revolt, Rudolf Egelhofer was arrested, kidnapped, tortured and shot. His body was hidden and has never been found.
