Fritz Tittmann (18 July 1898 – 25 April 1945) was a German politician and SS-Brigadeführer who served as an early Nazi Party leader in Saxony. He also was a Reichstag deputy throughout the years of Nazi Germany. From 1941 to 1942, he was the SS and Police Leader in Nikolajew (today, Mykolaiv) during the time of the Holocaust murders in Ukraine. He died near the end of the Second World War in unclear circumstances. Tittmann was born in Leipzig, attended Volksschule there, followed by an apprenticeship in locksmithing. He then studied mechanical engineering at a vocational school in Chemnitz and worked briefly as a machinist from 1913 to 1914. Shortly after the outbreak of the First World War, he joined the Royal Saxon Army on 21 September 1914. He served in the 105th Infantry Regiment (6th Royal Saxon) "King William II of Württemberg" throughout the war. Serving on the western front, he was wounded three times and was awarded the Iron Cross 1st and 2nd class and the Wound Badge in silver. Hospitalized in Zwickau from April 1918, he remained in the peacetime Reichswehr until 31 August 1920 when he was discharged on a partial disability pension with the rank of Unteroffizier.
