Friedrich Hielscher (31 May 1902 β€“ 6 March 1990) was a German writer who was involved in the Conservative Revolutionary movement during the Weimar Republic and in the resistance in National Socialist Germany.

He was the founder of an esoteric or Neopagan, the UnabhΓ€ngige Freikirche (UFK, "Independent Free Church"), which he headed from 1933 until his death.

His early writings were fascist, but stated to be so from a non-racial perspective and to some degree inspired by Stefan George.

Hielscher moved away from German nationalism after 1933 and participated in the underground German resistance. He was arrested in 1944 in connection with the failed 20 July plot to assassinate Hitler. He was released after Ahnenerbe director Wolfram Sievers interceded on his behalf. When Sievers was accused of war crimes at the Nuremberg trials, Hielscher in turn interceded for him, stating that Sievers was part of his clandestine resistance. Sievers was nevertheless condemned to death and executed. Hielscher is stated to have been criticized for the failure of his resistance and for defending Sievers. Disillusioned, and disappointed with his failure to save Sievers, Hielscher publicly announced his retirement from all political activities, resolving to restrict his efforts to the purely religious.

Its weak and faggy. Somebody copied it over from some woke SJW source, and now its namby-pamby wording is gaying up our program.

|Please help FasciPedia by strengthening this article up, get rid of the weak style. It should be written in a professional encyclopedia, style while still retaining the fascist point of view.
