The National Socialist Workers' Party (NSAP; Swedish: Nationalsocialistiska Arbetarepartiet) was a Swedish political party that initially espoused Nazism before adopting a more indigenous form of fascism. It was also widely infamous under the name Svensk socialistisk samling (SSS, 'Swedish Socialist Gathering'), which was generally among the public called Lindholmarna (lit.'the Lindholm-ers', after their leader Sven Olov Lindholm).

The party was revealed after WWII to have had well-organized plans, containing death lists of local Jews to be rounded up and deported and also plans for the construction of two Swedish concentration camps, in case of a Nazi German invasion of Sweden. Lindholm himself had planned to take the role as a "Swedish Quisling" if such an invasion had happened.

The Swedish king Gustav V had friendly ties to the SSS/NSAP during the war.[3][4][5][6][7][8]
