Gustave Albitte (30 April 1812 – 17 November 1898 ) was a 19th-century French playwright. He was the son of the conventional Jean-Louis Albitte le Jeune and a nephew of Antoine Louis Albitte l'Aîné.

Besides the plays he wrote in collaboration for the Parisian scenes, he also authored two novels in the style of the 1830s, where elegant young leading a "fashionable" life are experiencing a "Wertherian fever". In addition, Albitte, who also was a lawyer, published a Cours de législation gouvernementale.
