Fritz von Scholz (9 December 1896 – 28 July 1944) was a high-ranking member of the Nazi Waffen-SS during World War II and a recipient of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords of Nazi Germany.
Born in 1896, Fritz von Scholz served in World War I with the Austro-Hungarian Army in 1914.
Following his involvement in street violence, Scholz fled to Nazi Germany in late 1933 to avoid arrest.
Scholtz started World War II as a battalion commander in the SS-Regiment Der Führer, taking part in the Western campaign of 1940 and later taking command of the SS Regiment Nordland, which in 1941 became part of a new SS Division Wiking.
In January 1944, the division was transferred to the Oranienbaum front near Leningrad and attached to the III SS Panzer Corps under Army Group North.
