Victoria de Hesse-Rotenburg (en alemán: Anna Viktoria Maria Christina; Rotemburgo del Fulda, 25 de febrero de 1728 - París, 1 de julio de 1792) fue una princesa de Hesse por nacimiento, y princesa consorte de Soubise por matrimonio.

Situada a la orilla del río Fulda , es famosa por su balneario y su festival de música clásica , el cual se realiza todos los veranos desde 1951; por esta razón la ciudad es conocida como la Salzburgo del norte .
