Otto Ubbelohde was a German painter, etcher and illustrator.

Ubbelohde was born and grew up in Marburg, where his father August Ubbelohde was a professor at the University of Marburg. From 1900 he lived in Goßfelden, nowadays a part of the community of Lahntal.

Ubbelohde gained international fame for illustrating books of Grimm's Fairy Tales, 1906 and 1908 creating about 450 illustrations of fairy tales. He often took inspiration for his drawings from the landscape and buildings near his atelier and domicile in Goßfelden. For Rapunzel's tower he used as a model a building in Amönau called Lustschlößchen, while in Mother Hulda the landscape is inspired by the Rimberg.
