The 1997 Luxembourg Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at the Nürburgring, Germany on 28 September 1997. It was the fifteenth race of the 1997 Formula One World Championship.

The race was won by Canadian Jacques Villeneuve, driving a Williams-Renault. Frenchman Jean Alesi finished second in a Benetton-Renault, with Villeneuve's German teammate Heinz-Harald Frentzen third.

Although Villeneuve went on to win the 1997 Drivers' Championship, this turned out to be his 11th and final Formula One victory. It was the last victory for the Williams team until the 2001 San Marino Grand Prix, the last victory for a Renault engine until Fernando Alonso won the 2003 Hungarian Grand Prix, the last 1–2 finish between Renault-powered drivers until the 2006 Malaysian Grand Prix, and the last race where all Renault-powered drivers stood on the podium together until the 2010 Monaco Grand Prix. It was also the last win for a non-European Formula One driver until Rubens Barrichello won the 2000 German Grand Prix.
