Hans Salomon Landshut
Hans Salomon Landshut (born February 14, 1897 in Neumark in West Prussia; † October 3, 1944 in Sachsenhausen concentration camp ) was a German doctor of the Jewish faith.
Hans Salomon Landshut was the son of the mill owner Josef Landshut and his wife Alma (née Rosenthal). He studied medicine in Heidelberg and received his license to practice medicine on August 1, 1923 . In 1932 he married the non-Jew Berta Dehle. He and her had a daughter, Lilly Landshut. After the National Socialists seized power and the occupation of Jewish doctors was banned, he continued to work illegally and supported refugee Jews. He gave them shelter and provided them with money and food. In 1943 he hid the Soviet scout Josef Weingart and provided him with a radio to build a radio transmitter. On May 7, 1943, Landshut was arrested by the Gestapo and initially held at the Alexanderplatz police headquarters . In 1944 he was deported to the Lieberose satellite camp of Sachsenhausen concentration camp, where he worked as a camp doctor. After his transfer to the main camp, he was shot there on October 3, 1944. Since 2006 there has been a stumbling block in Berlin to remind people of the Jewish doctor.
