Karin Dor (pronounced [ˈkaːʁiːn ˈdoːɐ̯] ⓘ; born Kätherose Derr; 22 February 1938 – 6 November 2017) was a German actress.
[citation needed] In July 2016, while vacationing in South Tyrol, Dor was knocked to the ground after being accidentally rammed by a woman with a stroller.
Only during rehearsals for the theatre play Der Dressierte Mann weeks after her fall did doctors realize her injuries were more serious than previously thought, as she began suffering from headaches and was often tired.
Between October and November 2016, she appeared on stage every evening performing at the Komödie im Bayerischen Hof in Munich.
Her condition rapidly worsened in March 2017 and she was confined to a care home, where she ultimately died on 6 November, aged 79.
