František Maxián (9 November 1907 – 18 January 1971) was a Czech pianist and music educator.

Later he returned to piano studies, and his solo performances began to attract attention.

He died in 1971 and is buried not far from his teacher Vilém Kurz at Slavín, the Vyšehrad cemetery in Prague.

From 1927 to 1928, Maxián was active as a music school teacher in Dubrovnik, and in 1939 became a professor at the Prague Conservatory.
