Local community mainstay, Horst Krause, the long-standing village policeman, has passed away.
Prominent German Actor Horst Krause Passes Away at 83
\n\n In a sad turn of events, renowned German actor Horst Krause, best known for his role as the portly and gruff village policeman Horst Krause in the popular TV series "Police Call 110," has passed away at the age of 83. Born near Danzig in 1941 and raised in Ludwigsfelde, Krause's acting career spanned over five decades.
\n\n Krause's breakthrough came in the 1990s with his role in "Police Call 110," a series that became a popular counterpart to the well-known "Tatort." Apart from this series, Krause was also known for the ARD spin-off "Police Sergeant Krause." Before his acting career, Krause learned the profession of turner and then studied at the State Drama School in Berlin-Schöneweide.
\n\n Krause's character, the village policeman Krause, was considered the role of his life. Many appreciated Krause for embodying a piece of old village life and homeland. Television viewers loved Krause as he rode through Brandenburg with his dog as his sidekick on an old motorcycle or stumbled through warm-hearted stories.
\n\n Krause's private life was not widely known, but he played in many productions, including "The Girl Rosemarie" and "Boxhagener Platz." Carmen-Maja Antoni, who played Krause's sister Elsa Krause in the films, expressed her sadness at his passing. Roman Knizka, an actor mentored by Krause, paid an emotional tribute to him on Instagram.
\n\n RBB, the German public broadcaster, is altering its TV schedule in remembrance of Krause, with an obituary and a lengthy Horst Krause Night planned. RBB director Ulrike Demmer stated that Krause's art made the boundary between the person Krause and the figure Krause increasingly blurred.
\n\n Krause received the Brandenburg Order of Merit in 2012. Before his television fame, Krause was already known on television in GDR times, such as in "The State Prosecutor has the word." After the fall of the Berlin Wall, he became known in 1993 through the comedy "We can also do it differently..." directed by Detlev Buck.
\n\n Krause starred in many episodes of "Police Call 110" alongside other actors, though specific co-actors and roles in "Police Call" are not detailed in the provided search results. "Police Sergeant Krause" focused on the private life of the village policeman, including his sisters Elsa and Meta who run a guesthouse in the fictional town of Schönhorst.
\n\n Horst Krause's passing marks the end of an era in German television. His unique charm and ability to portray the simple, honest man will be greatly missed. Rest in peace, Horst Krause.
