Lauritz Godtfred Rasmussen (11 June 1824 – 24 April 1893) was a Danish zinc and bronze caster.
He established a zinc and bronze foundry in his own name in Copenhagen in 1865 and was appointed royal court caster in 1883.
Many Danish monuments from the second half of the 19th century come from his foundry.
It was later taken over by his son Carl Rasmussen and remained in the family for several generations.
