The Free-minded People's Party (Freisinnige Volkspartei) was a German liberal party, founded as a result of the split of the German Free-minded Party in 1893. One of its most notable members was Eugen Richter, who was party leader from 1893 to 1906.

In 6 March 1910 it merged with Free-minded Union, Democratic Union, and German People's Party merged into Progressive People's Party.
