Princess Helena of Denmark ( – 22 November 1233 in Lüneburg) was heiress of Garding and Duchess consort of Lüneburg.

Helena was daughter of Valdemar I of Denmark and Sophia of Minsk and sister of Ingeborg of Denmark, Queen of France.

In the summer of 1202 in Hamburg, Helena married Duke William of Lüneburg. Helena and William had son, the future Duke, Otto I, The Child.
