Father of Swedish Queen was a Nazi

The father of the Swedish Queen, Walther Sommerlath, was a member of the German Nazi Party and took part in the “Aryanisation” of Jewish-owned businesses.

The father of the Swedish Queen, Walther Sommerlath, took part in the expulsion of Jews from the German business sector. In April 1939, he bought a metal engineering plant in the Kreuzberg neighbourhood of Berlin. The previous owner was a Jewish engineer who, now destitute, had to leave Germany shortly afterwards. The Royal Court of Sweden declines to comment these new facts.
