Klein is a lunar impact crater that is located across the western rim of the larger crater Albategnius, in the central highlands region of the Moon.

The crater is named after German astronomer Hermann Joseph Klein.

There are low saddles in both the northern and southern parts of the rim, and the crater Klein A cuts through the northeast rim.

The floor has been covered and smoothed by a lava flow, and there is a small central peak.

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Klein.
