H 2–12 (PN 004.5+06.8) is classified as a true or probable planetary nebula (Acker et al. 1992). We obtained narrow-band imagery and long-slit echelle spectra from several positions across H 2–12. It is shown that H 2–12 is associated with one of the brightest condensations located at the periphery of Kepler's SNR. Thus, H 2–12 should be noted as a misclassified PN.
