Freikorps () were German volunteer military or paramilitary units. The term was originally applied to voluntary armies formed in German lands from the middle of the 18th century onwards. Between World War I and World War II the term was also used for the anti-communist paramilitary organizations that arose during the Weimar Republic. This is a partial list of the post-World War I Freikorps members.
