The Schwerin tramway network ({{langx|de|Straßenbahnnetz Schwerin}}) is a network of tramways forming the key feature of the public transport system in Schwerin, the capital city of the federal state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany.
Opened on 1 December 1908, the electrically powered network is currently operated by {{Interlanguage link multi|Nahverkehr Schwerin{{!}}Nahverkehr Schwerin GmbH|de|3=Nahverkehr Schwerin}}, and has four lines.

The network's four lines, and their headways during the day (depending in part upon the time of day, or day of week) are:
