'''Walter Robinow''' (15 August 1867 – 15 July 1938) was a German [[chess]] functionary and organizer.<br />
<br />
In 1908, he became the President of the Hamburg Chess Club (''Hamburger SK''), and was a main organizer of the [[Hamburg 1910 chess tournament]] (the 17th [[DSB Congress]]).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ballo.de/dsb_2__teil.htm |title=DSB 2.

After [[World War I]], he was the fifth President of the [[German Chess Federation]] (Deutschen Schachbundes, DSB) from 1920 to 1933.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.schachbund.de/intern/archiv/funktionen/praesidenten/index.html | title=Präsidenten des Deutschen Schachbundes }}</ref> Among others, he had organized the 24th DSB Kongress at Breslau 1925, the first international congress after the war.<br />
<br />
In April 1933, due to Nazi [[Machtergreifung]], Robinow had to resign his chairmanship of the ''Deutschen Schachbundes'' and the ''Hamburger Schachklubs'', because of his Jewish origin.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ballo.de/dsb_3__teil,_a.htm |title=DSB 3. Teil, A |website=www.ballo.de |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030327015927/http://www.ballo.de/dsb_3__teil,_a.htm |archive-date=2003-03-27}}</ref> One year later, the DSB would be dissolved and replaced with the Nazi-affiliated {{ill|Großdeutscher Schachbund|de}}, which allowed only players of Aryan origin as defined by the Nazis to play.<br />
