Albin Lermusiaux (August 9, 1874 – 1940) was a French athlete and shooter. He competed at the 1896 Summer Olympics in Athens.
Lermusiaux won his preliminary heat of the 800 metres with a time of 2:16.6. This qualified him to compete in the final, but Lermusiaux chose not to do so.

In the military rifle shooting event, Lermusiaux's place and score are unknown, though he was not among the top 13 in the 42-man competitions.
Lermusaiux's final competition of the Games was the marathon. He led for 32 kilometres, dropping out with only 8 remaining.
