German collective guilt is a psychological phenomenon, first identified by Carl Jung (1945), in which the German people feel a collective guilt (Kollektivschuld) for the atrocities committed by their fellow countrymen.[1]

The focus of the collective guilt is the Holocaust that occurred during the dictatorship of Adolf Hitler that occurred from 1933 through 1945.
