Friedrich Rudolf von Rothenburg (9 September 1710 Schloss Nietków – 29 December 1751 in Berlin) was a lieutenant general, lord of Rothenburg an der Oder, and a knight of the Order of the Black Eagle.
Friedrich Rudolf von Rothenburg stemmed from an old Silesian family.
He was instructed at home and sent to the University in Frankfurt an der Oder with his brothers.
There he wanted to join the French Royal German regiment commanded by Johann Christian Rulemann von Quadt, but his father would not give his permission.
In 1731, he joined his French cousin Konrad Alexander von Rothenburg in Spain.
