Abstract: A Theorem of Kirichenko states that the torsion 3-form of the characteristic connection of a nearly K"ahler manifold is parallel. On the other side, any almost hermitian manifold of type $mathrm{G}_1$ admits a unique connection with totally skew symmetric torsion. In dimension six, we generalize Kirichenko's Theorem and we describe almost hermitian $mathrm{G}_1$-manifolds with parallel torsion form. In particular, among them there are only two types of $mathcal{W}_3$-manifolds with a non-abelian holonomy group, namely twistor spaces of 4-dimensional self-dual Einstein manifolds and the invariant hermitian structure on the Lie group $mathrmSL(2,C)$. Moreover, we classify all naturally reductive hermitian $mathcal{W}_3$-manifolds with small isotropy group of the characteristic torsion.
