Tradition und Leben e.V. (TuL,lit. 'Tradition and Life"'), was a monarchist organisation inGermany.^[1] The group has campaigned for the restoration of the historicalGerman monarchy since 1956. Their candidate for the German crown isGeorg Friedrich Prinz von Preussen, head of theHouse of Hohenzollern, since 1994.^[2]

The group has its origins in the time shortly afterWorld War II, when monarchists got together under the motto "Letters for Tradition und Leben." They followed partly the tradition of monarchist organisations and personalities from the time of theWeimar Republic (1919–1933), especially theBund der Aufrechten [de], founded in November 1918, and partly the older German traditionalistVölkisch movement of the 19th and early 20th centuries.^{[citation needed]} TuL officially registered in January 1959 inCologne. Prior to that, a constitutional assembly took place in the autumn of 1958.Tradition und Leben provided a rallying point for all Germanroyalists and supported all former German ruling houses.^{[citation needed]}

TuL Chairman Knut Wissenbach has said that the goal of the group is to establish a parliamentaryconstitutional monarchy in Germany, saying "We want to put the crown on democracy."^[2] Each June, the organization's representatives are among those who lay a wreath at former KaiserWilhelm II'smausoleum atHuis Doorn, on the anniversary of his death. Doorn was his residence-in-exile in theNetherlands.^[1]

It dissolved in November 2022, after only a tenth of its 120 members on paper were still active.^[3]
