Werner Abrolat (15 August 1924 – 24 August 1997) was a German actor who was active in both Germany and in several international co-productions.
After a long career at provincial theatres in West-Germany, Abrolat appeared in a number of Spaghetti Westerns in the mid-1960s (notably the 1965 Sergio Leone film For a Few Dollars More where he played a member of Indio's gang). Work on German TV included guest roles on the West German crime drama series Tatort.
In the early 1970s he contributed to a number of films as a voice actor, e.g providing the voice for the character of Tjure in Vicky the Viking. He played the police commissioner in 00 Schneider – Jagd auf Nihil Baxter (1994). From the mid-1970s, he mostly appeared in German films and on German television until his death in 1997.
