Norbert Holm (16 December 1895 – 3 June 1962) was a general in the Wehrmacht of Nazi Germany during World War II. He was a recipient of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross. Following the 20 July plot, on 16 September 1944, Norbert Holm was arrested and later demoted because of his Chief of Operations association with Field Marsal Erwin Rommel. He fought as a private in the 19th Panzer Division, and for "repeated bravery before the enemy" he was promoted to Unteroffizier in January 1945 and to Feldwebel two months before the end of the war. He was rehabilitated in 1956.
