Alfred Schickel (18 June 1933 – 30 September 2015) was a German revisionist[1] historian and Scientific Director of the Zeitgeschichtliche Forschungsstelle Ingolstadt.
He attended Kolleg St. Blasien, a Jesuit school, from 1947 till graduating in 1954 and studied history and philosophy in Munich.
The award was criticized by the leading German newsmagazine "Der Spiegel" as Schickel was allegedly working towards an exculpation of Nazism.
[3] Heinz Nawratil wrote a "A 'Diatribe' in Honor of Dr. Alfred Schickel" published in the Journal of Historical Review.
Schickel has written an obituary for Hellmut Diwald, published in the far-right National Zeitung and Criticon.
