Arthur Böckenhauer (13 September 1899 – 18 April 1953) was a German soldier in the First World War who served in the Sturmabteilung, the Nazi Party paramilitary organization, and rose to the rank of SA-Obergruppenführer. He led the SA in Hamburg, Germany's second most-populous city, for a number of years and held several high-level staff positions in the Supreme SA Leadership (OSAF). He was also a Nazi politician, and was elected to the Hamburg Parliament and as a deputy to the Reichstag. He again served in the military during the Second World War.
