O Chafariz do Terreiro situa-se em Caminha, Portugal.

Obra renascentista do canteiro portuense João Lopes, o Velho. Situa-se na Praça do Conselheiro Silva Torres, popularmente conhecida por Terreiro, em frente à Torre do Relógio que era a porta principal da antiga cerca medieval de Caminha.

Foi iniciado em 1551, e concluido em 1553; a sua água foi encanada subterraneamente desde uma nascente em Moledo, a cerca de 4 km de distância. Está composto de três taças sobrepostas, de tamanhos crescentes, dispostas sobre um eixo vertical. A decoração é uma combinação de elementos geométricos e figuras mitológicas.
