Charlotte Kaletta

Charlotte Kaletta was the girlfriend of Fritz Pfeffer.

Charlotte Kaletta was the girlfriend of Fritz Pfeffer.[1] She came to the Netherlands by train via Oldenzaal on 29 December 1938, and went back to Berlin on 30 January 1939. On 30 March 1939, she came to the Netherlands again, via Zevenaar. From June 19 to July 1, she stayed in Brussels, and came back via Roosendaal.[2] Due to the Nuremberg laws, she could not marry Fritz Pfeffer in Germany. Nor could she do so in the Netherlands because of an international treaty dating from 1902.[3] In 1953, the Berlin Senator für Justiz decided to retroactively recognise as legally valid the marriages that had been made impossible. In the case of Charlotte Kaletta, the date of marriage was set at 31 May 1937.[4]
