Fanny Berlin (born 8 or 15 November 1852 in Vitebsk, died 1896 in Saint Petersburg) was the first woman who received her doctorate in Europe as a lawyer (Bern, 1878).[1] The Bernese intelligentsia newspaper considered that this legal doctorate examination of a lady was one of the first at the continental universities at all.[2]
