Otto Niebergall (5 January 1904 – 13 February 1977) was a German politician (KPD). During the twelve Nazi years, most of which he spent abroad, he was a resistance activist.[1][2][3]
After 1945 many of those who before 1933 had been committed members of the Communist Party of Germany and who lived in what in 1949 became West Germany, moved across to the Soviet sponsored zone, which after 1949 became communist East Germany. Others stopped being communists or ceased to involve themselves in politics. Otto Niebergall continued to be a politically engaged Communist politician. For much of the time he managed to combine this with living in West Germany, which was unusual.
