South Tyrolean Freedom (German: Süd-Tiroler Freiheit, STF) is a regionalist,[2] separatist[citation needed] and national-conservative[citation needed] political party in South Tyrol, Italy. The party, which is part of the South Tyrolean independence movement, seeks to represent the German-speaking population[3] and proposes the secession of South Tyrol from Italy and its reunification with the State of Tyrol within Austria.[3]

The party, whose founding leader was Eva Klotz, is officially led by Werner Thaler, but its leading figure is Sven Knoll.
