Eduard Hamm (7 March 1881 – 2 September 1944) was a German lawyer and politician who served in several government positions during the Weimar Republic.

The son of an Oberlandesgerichtsrat attended high schools in Metten and Deggendorf and graduated from Gymnasium bei Sankt Stephan in Augsburg.

After the November Revolution and the end of the Munich Soviet Republic, Hamm was a member of the Bavarian State Parliament from 15 July to 14 October 1920.

As early as 1920/1921, Hamm had denounced the "anti-Semitic propaganda" of the National Socialists in the Bavarian cabinet and had requested a ban on the Völkischer Beobachter.

After the assassination attempt on Hitler in 1944, Hamm was arrested on 2 September as part of the "Operation Grid" by the Gestapo and taken to the Lehrter Straße prison in Berlin, where he died under circumstances that have still not been clarified.

The suicide theory was later repeated in literature and interpreted to mean that Eduard Hamm wanted to avoid revealing the names of accomplices.
