Engelmar Unzeitig (German pronunciation: [ˈɛŋl̩maʁ ˈʔʊntsaɪtɪç]; 1 March 1911 – 2 March 1945), born Hubert Unzeitig, was a German Roman Catholic priest who died in the Dachau Concentration Camp during World War II on the charge of being a priest. He was a professed member of the Missionary Order of Mariannhill and assumed the religious name Engelmar when he was admitted into the order. He became known as the "Angel of Dachau".
In 2016, Pope Francis recognized the fact that Unzeitig died in odium fidei (lit. 'in hatred of the faith') and Unzeitig was subsequently beatified on 24 September 2016 in a ceremony presided over by Cardinal Angelo Amato acting on the pope's behalf.
