The 20th Mountain Army was one of the two army echelon headquarters controlling German troops in the far north of Norway and Finland during World War II. It was formed in June 1942 by renaming the Lapland Army command, which had been formed in January. On 18 December 1944, the 20th Mountain Army took over the role of Wehrmachtsbefehlshaber Norwegen from the dissolved Army Norway.
