Frankenthal ( German pronunciation: [ˈfʁaŋkn̩taːl] ; Upper Sorbian: Frankln) is a municipality in eastern Saxony, Germany. It belongs to the district of Bautzen and lies west of the eponymous city. It is named after Frankish colonists who settled in Lusatia ca. 1200.

Frankenthal is situated at the northern edge of the Lausitzer Bergland (Lusatian Hills), near the city of Bischofswerda.
