Eugen Neutert

Eugen Eduard Neutert (19 March 1905 – 9 September 1943) was a German communist and resistance fighter against Nazism.

Due to his membership in the Communist Party of Germany (KPD),[1] Neutert was fired from his job as an electrician in 1928; he then earned a living as a masseur.

He was arrested on 16 September 1936, and sentenced to two and a half years' imprisonment by the People's Court, which he served in Brandenburg-Görden Prison and Amberg in Bavaria.

Working together with Hans Coppi who introduced him to the group around Wilhelm Schürmann-Horster[3] and other members of the Red Orchestra, Neutert's main task was the production and distribution of flyers and leaflets; he was involved in the production of Die Innere Front (The Home Front), an illegal newspaper published by the Red Orchestra.

A stolperstein in memory of Neutert is located in Richard-Sorge-Straße 65 in the Friedrichshain district of Berlin, the address where he lived.
