The Kreisau Circle was a German anti-Nazi resistance group, founded in 1940 by Count Helmuth von Moltke on his estate at Kreisau. The Circle drafted a Christian-conservative political program for post-war Germany.
Von Moltke was arrested in January 1944 after which most of his colleagues attached themselves to von Stauffenberg's group which tried, unsuccessfully, to kill Hitler in July 1944.
