André Ravéreau (29 July 1919 – 12 October 2017) was a French architect and architectural historian known for his study and reinterpretations of vernacular Algerian architecture—particularly in M'zab and Ghardaïa.[1]

In 1965, Ravéreau was appointed the chief architect of historic monuments in Algeria.

Ravéreau received the Aga Khan Award for Architecture for the 1978-1980 cycle for his 1976 design of the Mopti Medical Centre in Mopti, Mali.
