Waltherplatz (Italian: Piazza Walther), spelled Walther-von-der-Vogelweide-Platz, is located in the Zentrum district of the South Tyrolean capital of Bolzano and is considered the "parlor of Bolzano." It owes its name to the poet Walther von der Vogelweide, to whom the Walther Monument, created by Heinrich Natter from Lasa marble, is dedicated. Waltherplatz is considered one of the most striking landmarks and the social center of the city.

In 1889, the Walther Monument was ceremonially unveiled in Bolzano on what was then Johannsplatz, now Waltherplatz. It is made of Laas marble.
