Ferdinand Boberg, born April 11, 1860 in Falun, died May 7, 1946 in Stockholm, was a Swedish architect.

He was one of the most productive and prominent architects of Stockholm around the turn of the 20th century. Among his most famous work is an electrical plant at Björns Trädgård in Stockholm, that was inspired by Middle Eastern architecture. The building was converted into a Mosque in the late nineties. He also designed Nordiska Kompaniet, the most prominent department store in Stockholm and Rosenbad which today houses the Swedish government chancellery.
