Adela of Meissen (also Adelheid or Adele) (died 23 October 1181) was a Danish Queen consort, spouse of King Sweyn III of Denmark.
Adela was born in Meissen, northwest of Dresden. She was the second-youngest daughter of Conrad, Margrave of Meissen and Luitgard of Ravenstein. Her siblings included Otto II, Margrave of Meissen; Theodoric I, Margrave of Lusatia; Dedi III, Margrave of Lusatia and Agnes II, Princess-Abbess of Quedlinburg.
Adela was married to Sweyn III of Denmark in 1152. As queen of Denmark, Adela was not popular and was criticized for influencing her spouse to abandon Danish customs in favour of German ones.
Widowed in 1157, she remarried to count Adalbert III of Ballenstedt.
