(10095) Carlloewe is an asteroid of the main belt that was discovered on September 9, 1991 by German astronomers Freimut Börngen and Lutz D. Schmadel at the Thuringian State Observatory Tautenburg ( IAU code 033) in the Tautenburg Forest in Thuringia .

The asteroid was named on March 2, 1999 after the German composer and cantor Carl Loewe (1796–1869), who made the ballad known as a special extended form of the solo song in the 19th century and set 400 ballads to music as well as 17 oratorios and six operas composed.

The celestial body belongs to the Eos family, a group of asteroids, which typically have large semi-axes from 2.95 to 3.1 AU , bounded inward by the Kirkwood gap of the 7: 3 resonance with Jupiter , and orbital inclinations between 8 ° and 12 °. The group is named after the asteroid (221) Eos . The family is believed to have emerged from a collision more than a billion years ago.
