Johanna Sophia Wilhelmine Caroline Vogt (June 16, 1862 – March 12, 1944) was a German suffragette and the first woman on the city council of Kassel starting in 1919.[1][2]

From 1922 until 1923, Vogt was one of the six Lutheran members (and among them, the only woman) of the constitutional committee of the constituent church assembly,[3] who worked out the joint constitution of the now Evangelical regional church in Hessen-Cassel, in which the Lutheran, the reformed, and Uniate churches were united.

Johanna Vogt was killed in a bomb attack in Berlin on the night of March 11-12, in 1944. On the Marbachshöhe residential area in Kassel-Wilhelmshöhe, a street is named after her.
