unusual facts about Nuremberg Laws



Katzenberger Trial

Someone denounced Katzenberger to the authorities and he was arrested on 18 March 1941 under the so-called Rassenschutzgesetz, or Racial Protection Law, one of the Nuremberg Laws, which made it a criminal offence as Rassenschande ("racial defilement") which prohibited Aryans and non-Aryans from having sexual relations.

Pester Lloyd

Being published outside the Third Reich's borders until World War II, Pester Lloyd was not subject to Nazi Gleichschaltung and thus, in an article on September 16, 1935, openly criticized the antisemitic Nuremberg Laws of 1935.

Walter Arthur Berendsohn

Three years later, further persecution by the state stripped Berendsohn of his German citizenship and Aryanized his property.
