Rosalinde von Ossietzky-Palm

Rosalinde von Ossietzky-Palm, also Rosalinda (1919–2000) was a German-Swedish pacifist and social worker. Born in Berlin, after the arrest of her father, the peace activist Carl von Ossietzky, in order to protect her from the Nazis her British-born mother sent her to England in 1933 and she later moved to Sweden. For many years, she attempted to restore her father's reputation in Germany, succeeding in 1991 to help the University of Oldenburg adopt the name "Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg". In 1990, von Ossietzky-Palm called on the German courts to rehabilitate her father, who had received the 1935 Nobel Peace Prize. Even on appeal in 1992, the case was refused.
