Jens Fredrik Wilhelm Schroeter (21 May 1857 – 27 April 1927) was a Norwegian astronomer.

His interest for astronomy stemmed from childhood, when his father had taught him the Zodiac, the planets and how to use the sextant.

He worked at the observatory in Bossekop from 1882 to 1884, and as an assistant at the Norwegian Meteorological Institute from 1884 to 1888.

Schroeter also edited the official Norwegian almanac, succeeding Geelmuyden here as well.

Outside of the strictly academic field, he also contributed to the encyclopedia Salomonsens Konversationsleksikon, as well as the almanac.
