Anthonie[2] Schetz (1564,[3] Antwerp - 1640 or 1641, Brussels), was a Flemish military commander in Spanish service during the Eighty Years' War.

He was the military governor of 's-Hertogenbosch until the town was lost to the Dutch in 1629, captain of a cavalry regiment, and a knight of the order of Santiago.

Gaspar was also banker to Philip II of Spain, giving him a political role and making him a leading figure in the Antwerp of the second half of the 16th century.

[4] In 1582 Anthonie married Barbara Karremans and after her early and childless death in 1604 he remarried to Maria van Malsen, daughter of Hubert van Malsen and heiress of Tilburg, a lordship in Goirle that through her father Hubert had been made allodial by paying the asking price of 8,000 guilders to outbid a previous lord from the related Van Haestrecht family – a century earlier it had been loaned to Joanna, Duchess of Brabant.

He is best remembered for his command of the Spanish army's successful defence of Leuven against a Franco-Dutch siege in 1635.
