The Germanenorden (Germanic or Teutonic Order) was an occultist and völkisch secret society in early 20th-century Germany.

==History== thumb|upright|Theodor Fritsch around 1920 The Germanenorden was founded in Berlin in 1912 by Theodor Fritsch and several prominent German occultists including Philipp Stauff, who held office in the Guido von List Society and High Armanen Order as well as Hermann Pohl, who became the Germanenorden's first leader. The order was a clandestine movement that wished to create a small but devoted group and was a sister movement to the more open and mainstream Reichshammerbund.
