Ferdinand Joseph Meinolph Anton Maria Freiherr[a] von Lüninck (3 August 1888 – 14 November 1944) was a German landowner, lawyer, military officer and politician.

He served in the Imperial German Army during the First World War as a Leutnant and company commander in a Guards Rifles Battalion, earning the Iron Cross 1st and 2nd class.

[2] Lüninck was never fully trusted by the Nazi hierarchy due to his ardent Catholicism and conservative, monarchist background; he was not one of the Alter Kampfer.

On 21 July 1938, Lüninck was suspended as Oberpräsident on Göring's initiative, and was soon replaced by the Nazi Party Gauleiter of Gau Westphalia-North, Alfred Meyer.

Lüninck then became involved in the plans to overthrow Adolf Hitler after having met the plotters Carl Friedrich Goerdeler and Fritz-Dietlof von der Schulenburg in Berlin at the end of 1943.
