The Preis der Winterkönigin is a Group 3 flat horse race in Germany open to two-year-old thoroughbred fillies. It is run at Baden-Baden over a distance of 1,600 metres (about 1 mile), and it is scheduled to take place each year in October.
The event was established in 1959, and it was originally held at Mülheim. It was introduced as a fillies' counterpart to the Preis des Winterfavoriten at Cologne. It was initially contested over 1,400 metres, and was extended to 1,600 metres in 1973.
For a period the Preis der Winterkönigin was classed at Listed level. It was given Group 3 status in 2001. The race was transferred to Baden-Baden in 2004.
