Lafrenze was arrested twice by the Gestapo and eventually liberated in April 1945 and settled in the US
The last surviving member of the White Rose resistance movement which urged Germans to stand up against Nazi tyranny during the second world war, has died, according to the group’s historical foundation.
Traute Lafrenz died at her home in South Carolina on Monday at the age of 103, the group said in a statement on Thursday, paying tribute to her “courageous resistance and lasting testimony”.
