Rohrbach Metall-Flugzeugbau was an airplane factory located in Berlin, Germany, and founded in 1922 by Dr.-Rohrbach was a pioneer in building airplanes based on the metal stressed skin principle.

Since export of airplanes from Germany was prohibited after WWI, a subsidiary company, Rohrbach-Metall-Aeroplan, was set up in Copenhagen.

The company enjoyed only limited commercial success, with the "Roland" airliner as its only model built in any quantity. By 1934 the company was taken over by Weser Flugzeugbau, where Adolf Rohrbach became technical director.
