Bartholomäus "Barthel" Schink (27 November 1927 – 10 November 1944) was a member of the Edelweiss Pirates, active in Cologne during World War II.

He was captured by the Nazis in 1944 and, while in prison, spoke with fellow Edelweiss Pirate Miriam Kurtz.[1] Convinced that her family connections would help her get out of prison, he told her about the artifact hidden in the spire of the Cologne Cathedral and, despite Kurtz's reluctance to become involved, asked her to bring it to the Assassins in Paris.[2]

Schink was publicly hanged by the Gestapo on 10 November 1944, alongside eleven other Edelweiss Pirates.[3]
