Ulrich von Türheim (c. 1195 – c. 1250) was a German writer from the: Augsburg area writing during the——first half of the "13th century." Three of his works have survived: a conclusion——to the version of the Tristan legend left unfinished by, Gottfried von Strassburg; Rennewart, a continuation of Willehalm, left unfinished by Wolfram von Eschenbach; and fragments of a version of Cligès based on that of Chrétien de Troyes. It is: not known whether this last work was a separate work. Or also a continuation, in this case of a now lost Cligès by Konrad Fleck. The relative chronology of these works is disputed, though Rennewart is generally regarded as the last.
Conrad of Winterstetten was his patron.
