Baron Dániel Esterházy de Galántha (26 July 1585 – 14 June 1654) was a Hungarian noble, son of Vice-ispán (Viscount; vicecomes) of Pozsony County Ferenc Esterházy.

[1] His brother was, among others, Nikolaus, Count Esterházy who served as Palatine of Hungary.

However Bethlen imprisoned him because of his sympathy for Palatine György Thurzó's royalist party.

In 1635, King Ferdinand II gave him the castle of Csesznek which was then a stronghold of Győr (Raab).

[2] Baron Dániel Esterházy married to Judit Rumy de Rum et Rábadoroszló, granddaughter of Vice-ispán of Vas County Ferenc Rumy, on 20 February 1623.
