Agnes of Brunswick-Lüneburg (born: before 1356; died: between 1 August 1430 and 22 December 1434) was a Duchess of Brunswick-Lüneburg by birth and by marriage Duchess of Pomerania and later Duchess of Mecklenburg. She was the daughter of Duke Magnus II of Brunswick-Lüneburg (died: 1373) and Catharine of Anhalt-Bernburg (d. 1390).

Agnes married the first time around 1366 with Count Burkhard V (VIII) of Mansfeld (died 1389 or 1390).

Agnes married the second time in Celle, between 1389 and 1391 with Duke Bogislaw VI of Pomerania (died: 1393).

Agnes married the third time in Schwerin, on 12 or 13 February 1396 with the widowed former King Albert of Sweden, who at that time was Duke Albert III of Mecklenburg (born: between 1338 and 1340; died: 1412). The couple had one son: Albert V (died: 1423), Duke of Mecklenburg and Schwerin.

Agnes is not considered a Queen of Sweden, because Albert had definitely been deposed in Sweden before they were married, but in Mecklenburg she was regarded as titular queen, since Albert did not renounce his claims on Sweden until 1405.

Agnes died between 1 August 1430 and 22 December 1434 and was buried in Gadebusch.
