Gottfried von Hohenlohe (1265 – 19 October 1310 in Mergentheim) was the 14th Grand Master of the Teutonic Order between 1297 and 1303.

Von Hohenlohe was born in 1265 to Kraft von Hohenlohe and Willeborg von Wertheim. He hailed from the rich Hohenlohe family of Burg Hohlach, near Uffenheim. He was also a relative to the earlier Grand Master Heinrich von Hohenlohe.

Von Hohenlohe joined the Teutonic Order in 1279 and became a Komtur in Franconia in 1290. In 1294 he advanced to Deutschmeister, the position of the Master of the branch of the Order within Germany. As a close associate of Grand Master Konrad von Feuchtwangen, he was chosen as his successor by the capitulum in Venice in 1297.

Due to his passiveness regarding further involvement of the Teutonic Order in Prussia and Livonia, as well as not listening to requests made by these provinces, the Order's capitulum assembled in Memel requested von Hohenlohe's resignation, which he signed in Elbing on October 18, 1303.

Von Hohenlohe left Prussia and settled in Germany where he received a bailiwick in Franconia. In Germany he still called himself the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order and usurped all its authority. He formed an opposition and caused a short lived split within the Order. Gottfried von Hohenlohe resided in Ulm until he moved to Mergentheim in 1307 where he died. He was buried in Marburg.
