It was formed on 17 September 1917 and was still in existence at the end of the war.

[4] With the onset of trench warfare, the German Army recognised that it was no longer possible to maintain the traditional Corps unit, that is, one made up of two divisions.

Therefore, under the Hindenburg regime (from summer 1916), new Corps headquarters were created without organic divisions.

[5] These new Corps were designated General Commands for Special Use (German: Generalkommandos zur besonderen Verwendung).

[6] The 67th Corps was commanded throughout its existence by General der Infanterie Reinhard von Scheffer-Boyadel.
