Tawerettenru was an ancient Egyptian queen of the Twentieth Dynasty; the Royal Wife of Ramesses V.[1]

Tawerettenru's estate is mentioned in the Wilbour Papyrus, a document dated to the reign of Ramesses V. Based on this document, Tawerettenru is thought to be a wife of this King, but it is possible she dates to an earlier period.

Grajetzki gives the hieroglyphs as transcribed from hieratic as follows:
