Renate von Natzmer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Renate von Natzmer (1898 - February 18, 1935) was a German noble lady, who worked for the army during the Weimar Republic and Third Reich. She also worked for Polish intelligence. In the early 30s, she met Polish agent major Jerzy Sosnowski and she became, like her friend Benita von Falkenhayn, his lover. They were arrested for spying and treason. Von Falkenhayn and von Natzmer were found guilty and sentenced to death by the court on February 16, 1935 and beheaded with an axe at Plötzensee Prison in Berlin.
