Anton Friedrich Ludwig Pelt (28 June 1799, in Regensburg – 22 January 1861, in Kemnitz) was a German Protestant theologian.

He studied philosophy and theology at the universities of Jena and Kiel, obtaining his habilitation at the University of Berlin in 1826. While serving as a lecturer of theology at Berlin, he was influenced by the teachings of Friedrich Schleiermacher, August Neander and Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. In 1828 he became an associate professor at the University of Greifswald, and in 1835 succeeded August Detlev Christian Twesten as a full professor at the University of Kiel. In 1852 he was relieved of his duties at the university following the takeover of Schleswig-Holstein by the Danish government. Subsequently, he relocated to a parish in Kemnitz, where in 1857 he was appointed ecclesiastical superintendent.[1]

With Georg Friedrich Heinrich Rheinwald and Karl August Traugott Vogt, he edited the Homiliarum Patristicum,[2] and in 1838 was co-founder of the publication Theologische Mitarbeiten.[1]
