The 1962 European Rowing Championships were rowing championships held on the Langer See in the East Berlin suburb of Grünau in East Germany; the venue had previously been used for the 1936 Summer Olympics. This edition of the European Rowing Championships was for women only and was held from 17 to 19 August.[1] Eleven countries contested five boat classes (W1x, W2x, W4x+, W4+, W8+).[2] Men would three weeks later meet in Lucerne for the inaugural World Rowing Championships.
