Avraham Levenbraun (אברהם לבנבראון, 24 June 1916 – 25 August 1987) was an Israeli politician who served as a member of the Knesset for Rakah and Hadash in two spells between 1972 and 1981.

Biography
Born in Ștefănești in Romania, Levenbraun was a member of Hashomer Hatzair during his youth. He made aliyah to Mandatory Palestine in 1938 and joined kibbutz Ruhama, where he lived until 1944 when he left due to ideological differences. He moved to Migdal and then Haifa, where he worked as a crane operator at a chemical and fertiliser factory. He became a member of the workers' board, and later its secretary.

In 1954 he joined Maki, having previously been a Mapam member, and was part of the group that split to form Rakah in 1965. He was on the party's list for the 1969 elections, and although he failed to win a seat, he entered the Knesset on 16 February 1972 as a replacement for Emile Habibi. He was re-elected in 1973, but lost his seat in the 1977 elections. He briefly returned to the Knesset in February 1981 as a replacement for the deceased Hanna Mwais, but lost his seat in the June 1981 elections. He remained a member of the Rakah central committee until 1985, and was also a member of the Histadrut's executive committee.

He died in 1987 and was buried in South Cemetery.
