Princess Sophie of Prussia (June 14, 1870–January 13, 1932), was queen consort of King Constantine I of Greece.
She was born in Potsdam, Germany in 1870 to Crown Prince Friederich and Princess Victoria, Princess Royal.
On October 27, 1899, she married Crown Prince Constantine of Greece in Athens, Greece. They had six children:
- George II, King of the Hellenes (1890-1947)
- Alexander I, King of the Hellenes (1893-1920)

- Paul I, King of the Hellenes (1901-1964)
- Princess Irene of Greece and Denmark (1904-1974), who married Aimone of Savoy, the fourth Duke of Aosta.
