Selma Lohse (née Rösel; 17 February 1883 – 4 May 1937) was a German politician who served in the Reichstag of the Weimar Republic from 1931 until 1932.
Selma Rösel was born on 17 February 1883 in the town of Görlitz, then part of the Kingdom of Prussia within the German Empire.
In 1904, she married Max Lohse, a prominent social democrat and union leader, quitting her apprenticeship to become a housewife and caretaker to their three children.
The family moved to the Bavarian city of Würzburg in 1908 after her husband became the regional manager of the German Stone Workers' Association (Steinarbeiterverband).
