Who actually was Albrecht Mendelssohn Bartholdy?
Born in Karlsruhe in 1874, died 1936 in Oxford.
Our Hamburg residence is named after Albrecht Mendelssohn Bartholdy, an international law scholar and peace research pioneer. A polymath like his famous grandfather Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy—whose correspondence he saved from the Nazis—he was also a talented pianist and composer. However, his professional focus was law. He received his habilitation in 1900 and taught at the universities of Leipzig and Würzburg before being appointed in 1920 to the newly founded University of Hamburg. There, he taught civil procedure, international law, and comparative law. From 1923 to 1934, he served as founding director of the Institute for Foreign Affairs, Germany’s first peace research institute. Forced into retirement by the Nazi regime in 1933, he went into exile in the UK and worked as a senior fellow in Oxford until his death.
