Henrik 5. den Ældre af Brunsvig (tysk: Heinrich der Ältere von Braunschweig; født ca. 1173, død 28. april 1227), søn af Henrik Løve og medlem af Huset Welf, var pfalzgreve fra 1195 til 1213. Efter en konflikt mellem hans far, Henrik Løve, og den tysk-romerske kejser Henrik 6., blev han som bod tvunget til at kæmpe i den kejserlige hær, men deserterede angiveligt under belejringen af Napoli i 1191.

Henry (V) the Elder of Brunswick, Count Palatine of the Rhine (1173-1227). A member of the House of Welf (capital: Brunswick). The anachronistic arms of Wittelsbach (on terrace in base) presumably are intended to signify "Duchy of Bavaria", which was held by his father. It was his daughter and heiress Agnes of the Palatinate who married into the Wittelsbach family, in 1222, bringing them the County Palatine of the Rhine. On that inheritance the Wittelsbach family adopted the "Lion of Palatinate" (Sable, a lion rampant or crowned armed and langued gules) as a permanent quartering in their coat of arms. The origin of this charge is unclear. It would be expected to have been the arms of Henry V, Count Palatine of the Rhine, who lived during the start of the age of heraldry (circa 1200-1215). Did he adopt the "Lion of Palatinate" as his own arms? Surviving anachronistic and imaginary images show him with the attributed arms of Welf Or, a lion rampant gules, or as here with Brunswick-Lüneburg.
