Georges Auguste Dejaeghère (born 7 January 1879, died 1955) was a French gymnast.[2] He competed in the men's individual all-around event at the 1900 Summer Olympics.[3]
He also took part in the first gymnastics World Championships which took place in 1903, where he won gold in the pommel horse together with his compatriot Joseph Lux and Hendricus Thijsen of the Netherlands. Overall, he finished in fourth. At the 1905 World Championships, he repeated his results from 1903, helping his team to gold again, with gold in the pommel horse, this time alone, and fourth place overall.
