加布里埃爾·安東·瓦爾特(德語:Gabriel Anton Walter,1752年2月5日—1826年4月11日),鋼琴製造家。《新格羅夫音樂與音樂家辭典》將他稱作「當時最著名的維也納鋼琴製造家」。[1]
瓦爾特出生於德國諾伊豪森。1780年他遷至維也納,[2]1790年他被授予帝國皇家室內管風琴製造家和樂器製造家的身份。到了1800年,他雇用了大約20名工人。[3] 同年,他的繼子約瑟夫·舍夫斯托斯(Joseph Schöffstoss)加入了他的事業,鋼琴也被冠以「安東·瓦爾特與兒子」(Anton Walter und Sohn)之名。[3]瓦爾特最後一架尚存的鋼琴的歷史可以追溯到1825年,他於次年去世。[3]
