The 21st Parachute Division (German: 21. Fallschirmjäger-Division) was a division of the German military during World War II, active in 1945.

History

The division was formed in March 1945 in the Netherlands, using elements of Sturm-Brigade Gericke and troops from the disbanded Fallschirmjäger Ausbildungs-und-Ersatz-Division.[1]

The division did not manage to form fully before the end of the war, and did not see combat.[1]
