Heinrich Ernst Walter Schulz (21 July 1893 – 5 June 1979) was a German officer and political assassin.

He was an accomplice of Heinrich Tillessen on 26 August 1921, when he committed the murder of German politician Matthias Erzberger.

Afterwards, Schulz returned to his parents' house and resumed his old job at the Saalfeld engine works and iron foundry.

On behalf of the Organisation Consul, on 26 August 1921, Schulz, together with Henry Tillessen, murdered Centre Party politician and former Finance Minister Matthias Erzberger at Bad Griesbach in the Black Forest.

Erzberger, as head of the German Armistice Commission on 11 November 1918, had signed the ceasefire agreement of Compiègne.

As a result, right-wing and national groups hated Erzberger and called him a "November criminal".

Schulz fled shortly after the assassination to Hungary, along with Tillesen, and was pursued for murder by Hermann Berchtold.

In regional terms, he was subordinated to the SS Group Leader Josias Erbprinz zu Waldeck-Pyrmont.

Heinrich Tillessen was heard as a witness and, to Schulz's relief, portrayed himself as the main culprit.
