Third ANTI-Jewish Law

The third anti-Jewish law, which came into effect on 8 August 1941, defined who was considered Jewish on a racial basis: anyone with at least one Jewish grandparent was classified as Jewish under the law. As a result, conversions to Christianity became meaningless. The law also prohibited marriage and sexual relations between Jews and non-Jews, and further restricted Jews’ employment opportunities.
