Mathias Logelin (24 April 1907 - 31 October 1999) was a Luxembourgian gymnast from Differdange. He competed at the 1928 Summer Olympics and the 1936 Summer Olympics. In July 1930, he was part of a gymnastics team during the 9th tournament of the International Gymnastics Association, where he was described as being "undeniably the best", having developed rapidly over the preceding years. In 1931, he won first prize in the National Championships of Gymnastics of the Aloyse Kayser Cup, being given the title of Champion of Luxembourg. The following year in January 1932, the newspaper Escher Tageblatt noted that during his performance in Paris in 1931, "he clearly proved that he holds international class" when previewing a gymnastics competition due to be held in Dudelange that month. In July 1962, he was honored at the Federal Gymnastics Festival in Dudelange, with awards given to individuals who devoted "many years of active work" in gymnastics.
