Eduard Riedel (February 1, 1813 – August 24, 1885) was a German architect and Bavarian government building officer.
Riedel's first project was the supervision of the new development of the Ludwigstraße Damenstift (convent) in Munich.
This was followed by the residence and palace garden for King Otto of Greece in Athens, where he was court architect until he returned to Munich in 1850.
In 1853 he was appointed superintendent of the royal building authorities and in 1872 he became the leading court architect.
His works include the Wolfram von Eschenbach Monument in Wolframs-Eschenbach, numerous fountains in the garden of Schleissheim Palace, the Beamtenreliktanstalt and Bavarian National Museum in Munich, as well as numerous drafts and concepts such as for the Cistercian monastery in Mehringen, a new university and a coin.
