The Marxist-Leninist Party of Germany (German: Marxistisch-Leninistische Partei Deutschlands, MLPD) is an antirevisionist political party in Germany without parliamentary representation. It was founded in 1982 by members of the Communist Workers Union of Germany (Kommunistischer Arbeiterbund Deutschlands; KABD).
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.
It participates in the International Conference of Marxist-Leninist Parties and Organizations (ICMLPO).
The MLPD's youth movement is called Rebell (Rebel).
In the 2005 federal elections, the MLPD won 0.1 percent of the total votes cast. Its strongest showing was in the states of Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia, where it garnered 0.4 percent of the vote.
