Frieda Gallati (September 12, 1876, Glarus, Switzerland — December 30, 1955, Glarus, Switzerland) was a Swiss historian.

Starting in 1896, she studied at the University of Zurich, where she received her doctorate in history in 1902; she was the second Swiss woman to do so.

In 1907, she married professor Wilhelm Melchior, from whom she divorced again in 1915.
