Rheinsberg is a 1967 West German romantic comedy film directed by Kurt Hoffmann and starring Cornelia Froboess, Christian Wolff and Werner Hinz.[1] The film is based on a novel by Kurt Tucholsky set partly in Rheinsberg. Four years earlier Hoffmann had directed another Tucholsky adaptation, Gripsholm Castle.

The film's sets were designed by the art director Werner Schlichting. It was shot at the Spandau Studios in Berlin and on location in Bremen and Schleswig-Holstein. As the real Rheinsberg was then in Communist-controlled East Germany, alternative locations in the West stood in for it.
