They were the Gestapo, which stands for "Geheime Staatspolizei" (German of "Secret State Police") and they were effectively Hitler's mafia - above and beyond the law, to do whatever dirty work he wanted doing in Germany.

The Gestapo was the Nazi/Hitler's secret police, like the others have stated.
BTW, did you ever find it weird that Hogan's Heroes was about prisoners of war in Germany, but, that not one of the Germans spoke any German?

These ruthless individuals were Hitlers own Secret Police that would do all kinds of interrogation of allied prisoners and also tortures of other important unlucky souls!! They were usually very well educated and precise with there methods. They were even used to terrorize their own troops for several issues!!
