Gunther of Pairis (c. 1150 – c. 1220) was a German Cistercian monk and author, writing in Latin.

His best-known work is his Historia Constantinopolitana about the Fourth Crusade, in a mixture of prose and verse. It was based on the account of Martin of Pairis, abbot of Pairis Abbey, and includes the siege and looting of Constantinople.

Gunther also wrote Solimarius, about the First Crusade, and Ligurinus, an epic about Frederick Barbarossa.
