Henriette von Paalzow, née Wach (1788, Berlin – 30 October 1847, Berlin) was a German historical novelist.

Henriette Wach was the sister of the painter Karl Wilhelm Wach. She married a Prussian officer, Major Paalzow, in 1816, though the marriage was dissolved in 1821. Her historical novels were compared to those of Walter Scott.
