The 1989 FIBA Europe Under-16 Championship for Women (known at that time as 1989 European Championship for Cadettes) was the eighth edition of the FIBA Europe Under-16 Championship for Women. 12 teams featured in the competition, held in Timișoara, Romania, from 5 to 12 August 1989.
Czechoslovakia won their first and only title before their dissolution four years later. It was the first time that a team other than the Soviet Union won the title.
In the Preliminary Round, the twelve teams were allocated in two groups of six teams each. The top two teams of each group advanced to the semifinals. The third and fourth place of each group qualified for the 5th-8th playoffs. The last two teams of each group qualified for the 9th-12th playoffs.
