Caroline Louise of Waldeck and Pyrmont (14 August 1748 – 18 August 1782), was a Princess of Waldeck and Pyrmont by birth and Duchess consort of Courland by marriage.
She was the daughter of Karl August, Prince of Waldeck and Pyrmont, and Christiane Henriette of Birkenfeld-Bischweiler.
She married the Duke of Courland, Peter von Biron, on 15 October 1765. The relationship between Caroline and Peter was unhappy, and evidently, he abused her while drunk. The union produced only one son, who was stillborn on 16 November 1766. Caroline and Peter were divorced in 1772.
