Augustín Malár (18 July 1894 – 28 February 1945) was a Slovak general during World War II.

During the interwar period, Malár was one of the few successful higher officers of Slovak nationality in the Czechoslovak Army.

However, after the poorly timed start of the uprising on 29 August 1944, contrary to expectations, Malár did not join the rebels.

In a radio speech the next day, he opposed the uprising and exhorted soldiers to return to their barracks as "our time has not come yet."

He was deported to Germany, where he died after interrogation in the Sachsenhausen concentration camp - Zellenbau.
