加布里埃尔·安东·瓦尔特(德语:Gabriel Anton Walter,1752年2月5日—1826年4月11日),钢琴制造家。《新格罗夫音乐与音乐家辞典》将他称作“当时最著名的维也纳钢琴制造家”。[1]
瓦尔特出生于德国诺伊豪森。1780年他迁至维也纳,[2]1790年他被授予帝国皇家室内管风琴制造家和乐器制造家的身份。到了1800年,他雇用了大约20名工人。[3] 同年,他的继子约瑟夫·舍夫斯托斯(Joseph Schöffstoss)加入了他的事业,钢琴也被冠以“安东·瓦尔特与儿子”(Anton Walter und Sohn)之名。[3]瓦尔特最后一架尚存的钢琴的历史可以追溯到1825年,他于次年去世。[3]
