Atze Schröder is a fictional character in German comedy.
The character of Atze Schröder emerged in the mid-1990s on Germany's cabaret and comedy stages, quickly gaining recognition for his signature "Ruhrpott" humor and distinctive appearance. The character first garnered significant attention through appearances on the *Quatsch Comedy Club* and, later—most notably—through the RTL television series *Alles Atze*, which aired from 1999 to 2006. Atze Schröder also appeared on the big screen as the court jester in the feature film *7 Zwerge – Männer allein im Wald*.
In addition to his stage shows and tours, the character has frequently hosted the German Comedy Awards ceremony, as well as various television comedy formats—including *Der Comedy Olymp*, the *Comedy Adventskalender* on RTL, and, since 2019, *NightWash*. In 2011, the performer behind the character was awarded the German Comedy Prize for his solo show *Revolution*. Furthermore, in 2021, Atze Schröder appeared in the music video for the song "Der wichtigste Finger einer Faust" by the band Jupiter Jones.
