Franz Ludwig Güssefeld (6 December 1744 – 17 June 1807) was a German cartographer.

He is noted for his highly accurate maps which were mostly published by Homannsche Erben (Homann Heirs") in Nuremberg.

Güssefeld was born in Osterburg and already had an interest in drawing and creating maps in his youth.

[1] When he failed to secure a position with the Prussian Corps of Engineers, he became a forester.

[2] During the final 18 years of his life, the Landes-Industrie Comptoir and Geographisches Institut von Bertuch in Weimar also published some of Güssefeld's maps.
