Irmgard von Stephani (20 September 1895 – 5 October 2007) was at age 112 years 15 days, the oldest living person in Germany. Von Stephani was born in Kassel. In the 1930s, she moved to Lankwitz, a district of Steglitz in the southwest of the German capital Berlin. Von Stephani was unmarried with no children. She became the oldest living German resident at age 109 on 22 July 2005, with the death of 110-year-old Frieda Müller. Von Stephani held this position for over two years. When Von Stephani turned 110, she received an honorary certificate from German President Horst Köhler. She had her 111th birthday in 2006. At the time, she was having trouble with her eyesight and hearing, but she still went out occasionally for the odd walk, and, quite remarkably, was also still living on her own.〔(Germany 's Oldest Lady Turns 111 )〕 When turning 112, she had moved into an old people's facility just five months before. Despite being in seemingly good health, Von Stephani died not long after her last birthday, aged 112 years 15 days. She was succeeded as Germany's oldest person by 111-year-old Elsa Tauser, who died herself just one day later, relinquishing the title to fellow 111-year-old Frieda Borchert.〔(Oldest German dies at 112: never married ) 〕 ==See also== *List of German supercentenarians 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Irmgard von Stephani」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
