Queen Louise (German: Königin Luise) is a German silent historical film directed by Karl Grune and starring Mady Christians, Mathias Wieman, and Anita Dorris. It was released in two separate parts slightly less than a month from each other in December 1927 and January 1928. It commenced a series of historical epics directed by Grune.[1] It was shot partly at the Terra Studios in Berlin. The film's sets were designed by the art director Hans Jacoby.

The film portrays the short life of Louise of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, wife of the Prussian monarch Frederick William III.
