Kurpfalz, formellt Pfalzgrevskapet vid Rhen (tyska: Pfalzgrafschaft bei Rhein), var en stat i Tysk-romerska riket som uppstod kring kungapfalzen i Aachen som under högmedeltiden var säte för den lothringske pfalzgreven. Dess härskare bekräftades i 1356 års gyllene bulla som kurfurstar varvid namnet Kurpfalz kom till. De pfalziska territorierna, som inte var geografiskt sammanhängande, tillhörde från 1512 den kurrhenska kretsen. Idag utgör områdena delar av de tyska förbundsländerna Rheinland-Pfalz, Hessen och Baden-Württemberg samt de franska regionerna Alsace och Lorraine.
