Actor perished at 83 years old - Actor passes away at the age of 83
In sad news, actor Horst Krause, a beloved figure in German film and television for decades, has passed away at the age of 83. The news was reported by RBB.
Born and raised in Germany, Krause studied at the State Drama School in Berlin-Schöneweide from 1964 to 1967, laying the foundation for his successful career in the arts.
Before making his mark in film and television, Krause honed his craft in theater. His stage performances were the stepping stones that led him to the silver screen.
Krause's film and television career took off in the 1990s. He became a household name, with roles in films like "Wir können auch anders..." (1993) and "Schultze gets the blues" (2003), for which he won the German Film Prize for Best Actor.
One of his most iconic roles was that of the beloved police chief Horst Krause in the Brandenburg squad in the ARD series "Polizeiruf 110". He played this role for over 15 years from the mid-1990s, alongside Jutta Hoffmann (84), his co-star in the series.
Interestingly, the actor who portrayed Horst Krause in the ARD series was none other than Horst Krause himself. He passed away on September 5, 2025, in Teltow, where he lived and later moved into a retirement home.
Krause was also part of the "Krause" film series, including "Krauses Fest", "Krauses Hoffnung", and "Krauses Zukunft". However, no new information about these roles was provided.
In 2003, Krause was awarded Best Actor at the Stockholm International Film Festival for his leading role in "Schultze Gets the Blues". This was a testament to his talent and dedication to his craft.
Horst Krause's passing marks the end of an era in German cinema. His memorable performances and endearing characters will be sorely missed. Our thoughts are with his family and friends during this difficult time.
