Anton Frommelt (14 March 1895 – 7 October 1975) was a pastor, politician and artist from Liechtenstein who served as the Deputy Prime Minister of Liechtenstein from 1933 to 1938. He was also President of the Landtag of Liechtenstein from 1928 to 1944 and as a member of the Landtag from 1928 to 1945.
Frommelt initially worked as a pastor before entering politics, where he was opposed to Nazi elements in Liechtenstein and played a key role in averting the 1939 Liechtenstein putsch. After leaving politics in 1945, he dedicated himself as an artist and photographer, where he gave advice on stamp policy and was recognised through exhibitions. In addition, he also contributed as a historian, focusing on archaeological excavations and monument preservation.
