The Tunnel (German:Der Tunnel) is a 1915 German silent drama film directed by William Wauer and starring Friedrich Kayßler, Fritzi Massary and Hermann Vallentin. It is the first of several film adaptations of Bernhard Kellermann's 1913 novel Der Tunnel about the construction of a vast tunnel under the Atlantic Ocean connecting Europe and America.[1] The film was made by Paul Davidson's PAGU production company, with sets designed by art director Hermann Warm.

It still survives, unlike many films from the era, and was restored in 2010.
