Hermann Kreutzer (3 May 1924 – 3 March 2007) was a German political activist (SPD). As a teenager he was caught distributing anti-government leaflets and spent the final months of the National Socialist period serving the first part of a ten year prison sentence. Towards the end of 1945 he entered mainstream politics in his home region, which was by now being administered as part of the Soviet occupation zone. He campaigned against the party merger between the Communist Party and the Social Democratic Party. A further lengthy period in government detention followed. In 1956, following high level government negotiations, he was released and transferred from East to West Berlin.

  • Hermann Kreutzer (3 May 1924 – 3 March 2007) was a German political activist (SPD). As a teenager he was caught distributing anti-government leaflets and spent the final months of the National Socialist period serving the first part of a ten year prison sentence. Towards the end of 1945 he entered mainstream politics in his home region, which was by now being administered as part of the Soviet occupation zone. He campaigned against the party merger between the Communist Party and the Social Democratic Party. A further lengthy period in government detention followed. In 1956, following high level government negotiations, he was released and transferred from East to West Berlin. After this he came to the notice of commentators as one of a handful of West German back-room negotiators involved in the "Häftlingsfreikauf" programme, which involved East German political prisoners being released to West Germany in return for large amount of cash. When the programme began in 1962, it was a government secret on both sides of the border between the Germany. However, as more former East German political prisoners turned up in West Germany during the 1960s and 1970s, the realities of "Häftlingsfreikauf" became, little by little, a matter of public knowledge. By 1980, some of the complexities of Hermann Kreutzer's involvement in it were being openly discussed in the West German press. (en)
