George Philipp Ludolf von Beckedorff (14 April 1778 in Hanover – 27 February 1858 in Grünhof) was a prominent Prussian Roman Catholic convert and parliamentarian.
In this capacity he contributed largely, in co-operation with Nicolovius, to the uplifting of popular education and published in nine volumes the "Year Book of the Prussian Schools".
The kindly crown-prince advised a consultation with Bishop Sailer of Ratisbon, and a few days' intercourse with this prelate sufficed to prepare Beckedorff for abjuration, Holy Communion, and Confirmation in June, 1827.
With the still higher aim of furthering religious union and peace he published several works on the mutual relations of family, school, State, and Church.
He founded also a school and home for poor children and entrusted them to the Sisters of Charity; both of these institutions began to flourish during his lifetime.
