Wolfgang Wenzel von Haffner (23 November 1806 – 11 September 1892[1]) was a Norwegian naval officer and politician.

He was born in Christiania in 1806, as the son of Lieutenant Colonel Johan Friedrich Wilhelm Haffner and Sara Vilhelmine, née Hagerup.

He was appointed chief of the Ministry of the Navy and Postal Affairs in December 1861,[2] being the fourth person to hold that position that year.

[4] During this final period, the Parliament of Norway became severely disappointed with monetary amounts granted to enlargement of Karljohansvern.

[6][7][8] On 21 March 1884, when Selmer's Cabinet fell due to the impeachment trial, Haffner was again named a member of the Council of State Division in Stockholm.
