Käte Lydia Voelkner also known as Kathe Voelkner (12 April 1906 – 28 July 1943) was a German communist, anti-Nazi and resistance fighter. Voelkner became part of a Soviet espionage group that operated in Europe in World War II that would later be identified by the Abwehr as the Red Orchestra ("Rote Kapelle"). Originally a circus acrobat, Voelkner managed to obtain a key position as a shorthand typist in the Parisian office of Fritz Sauckel of the Arbeitseinsatz (Compulsory Labour Service) where she operated as an informant to the Red Orchestra's group's director Leopold Trepper.
