Baron Ferenc Forgách de Ghymes et Gács (c. 1530 – 19 January 1577) was a Hungarian prelate of the Roman Catholic Church, who served as bishop of Várad (today: Oradea Mare) and Chancellor of Transylvania between 1571 and 1575. Nicolaus Olahus became his mentor and patron, funding his studies in Padua and encouraging him to pursue a career in the Church.
His nephews were, among others, Palatine Zsigmond Forgách and Archbishop of Esztergom Ferenc Forgách.
