Eugène Ketterer (7 July 1831 Rouen, France – 18 December 1870 Paris) was a French composer and pianist.
In early youth he was a student at the Paris Conservatoire, where he won Second Prize for solfege in 1847 and a premier accessit in 1852, under Antoine François Marmontel. After his graduation until his death, which took place during the siege of Paris, 18 December 1870, he appeared constantly as a pianist winning wide repute for his fantasies and drawing-room pieces, of which he wrote a large number, but only a few of which are now well known.
