Christian Adolf I, Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Franzhagen (3 June 1641 – 2 January 1707) was a German nobleman. He was the second son of Duke John Christian of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg and his wife,and Anna of Oldenburg-Delmenhorst.
When he was 8-years-old his older brother, John Frederick, died, making him heir to his father;s estate. On his father's death in 1653, he inherited his father's small duchy, only for it to go bankrupt in 1667 and be returned to the Danish Crown.
In 1676, he married Eleonore Charlotte of Saxony-Lauenburg, from whom he obtained the estate Franzhagen. From here he started the brief Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Franzhagen line. He had three sons:
- Christian Leopold, Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Franzhagen (25 August 1678 – 13 July 1707)
- Louis Charles, Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Franzhagen (4 June 1684 – 11 October 1708) — his son, Christian Adolf II, inherited the lands as a small child and was the last to hold the title.
- John Francis (30 Jul 1685 – 22 January 1687)
He died on 2 January 1702 in Hamburg, and his line would end with the death of his grandson Christian Adolf II.
