The Europe Zone was one of the two regional zones of the 1951 Davis Cup. 21 teams entered the Europe Zone, with the winner going on to compete in the Inter-Zonal Final against the winner of the America Zone. A seeding system was introduced for the first time, where the previous year's quarterfinalists were guaranteed a bye in the first round.[1] Sweden defeated West Germany in the final, and went on to face the United States in the Inter-Zonal Final.[2]
