Dietrich of Apolda[1] (died 1302) was a German Dominican hagiographer, writing towards the end of the thirteenth century.

He wrote a popular life of Elizabeth of Hungary, including mythical elements such as the sorcerer Klingsor.[2][3] He also wrote a lengthy life of St. Dominic, supported by Munio of Zamora.[4][5]
