Augusto Giacometti (August 16, 1877 – June 9, 1947) was a Swiss painter from Stampa, Graubünden, cousin of Giovanni Giacometti who was the father of Alberto, Diego and Bruno Giacometti.

He finished -among others- stained glass windows in both of the most important churches of Zürich, Grossmünster and Fraumünster.

A two day hiking trail connects most of the locations of the family in Val Bregaglia.[1]
