Ia telah ditubuhkan, bukan oleh Tentera Darat tradisi Jerman, tetapi oleh Parti Nazi atas arahan Adolf Hitler dan kewujudannya hanya di umumkan secara rasmi pada 18 Oktober 1944.^[3] Ia mengerah lelaki yang berumur antara 13 dan 60 tahun yang sudah tidak berkhidmat dalam beberapa unit tentera sebagai sebahagian daripada Pasukan Kawalan Tempatan (Home Guard) Jerman. Merangkumi satu usaha terakhir dan seruan keperwiraan untuk pertahanan, Volkssturm terdiri daripada salah satu komponen terakhir Perang Total yang diisytiharkan oleh Menteri Propaganda Joseph Goebbels, sebahagian daripada usaha Nazi untuk mengatasi kekuatan tentera musuh-musuh mereka melalui semangat kuat kenegaraan.^[4]
