Albert Haddy’s application to the State Board of Fine Arts to revoke the exclusion decision, 1934.
Daniel Ljunggren, Sweden
In November 1934, Albert Hadda, like all Jewish architects in Germany, received a letter from the State Chamber of Fine Arts informing him that he was banned from practicing his profession. Albert decided to fight back: he submitted an appeal, but it was unsuccessful, and he was forced to find another source of income. Commissioned by the Jewish community, he began teaching craft courses to students at the Jewish high school on Rehdigerplatz 3 (57 Żelazna Street) as well as to Jewish adults who were preparing to emigrate to Mandatory Palestine. The periods of his employment are noted in his Arbeitsbuch, a mandatory document for all employed in Germany.
