Nils Gustav von Kantzow (30 August 1885 – 30 August 1967) was a Swedish gymnast who competed in the 1908 Summer Olympics. He was a member of the Swedish team that won the all-around gold medal.[1] He was born in a noble family and reached the rank of captain in the Swedish Army in 1916.[2]
In 1913 Kantzow married Carin Axelina Hulda Fock, and they had one son, but they were later separated. A few days after their divorce in December 1922, Carin married the German airline pilot Hermann Göring, who later became a leader of the Nazi Party.[2]
