The Marxist-Leninist Party of Germany (Marxistisch-Leninistische Partei Deutschlands, MLPD) is a political party in Germany without parliamentary representation. It was founded in 1982.

It is Maoist (see 'Marxism-Leninism') in orientation, and stands in the heritage of New Left Maoism of the 1960s student movements. It has long been the largest far-left grouping in Germany, which distinguishes the German far left from that of most Western countries, in which the largest far left groupings are Trotskyist rather than Maoist.

The MLPD's youth movement is called Rebell (Rebel).
