The Last Relic (Estonian: Viimne reliikvia) is a 1969 Estonian historical adventure film. It became one of the most popular films ever made in the country, and some critics have even called it "the only Estonian cult film".

The film is loosely based on Prince Gabriel or The Last Days of Pirita Monastery, a 1893 Estonian historical fiction novel by Eduard Bornhöhe.

The film's content editor was later president of Estonia Lennart Meri.
