German Party of the Zips

The German Party of the Zips (German: Zipser deutsche Partei) was a party of the First Czechoslovak Republic founded at Kežmarok on 20–22 March 1920 aiming for the representation of the Zipser Germans minority in Czechoslovakia.[1]

In 1924 it was a member of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Deutschen Parteien in der Slowakei with the German National Party, the Farmers' League, the German Business Party and the German section of the Hungarian-German Provincial Christian-Socialist Party but not with the Hungarian-German Social Democratic Party nor with the Slovak section of the German Social Democratic Workers Party in the Czechoslovak Republic.[2]

Its member of Parliament was, from 1925 to 1939, Andor Nitsch (1883–1976).[3]
