Petrus Josephus Hubertus (Pierre) Cuypers (16 May 1827 – 3 March 1921) was a Dutch architect.
His name is most frequently associated with the Amsterdam Central Station (1881–1889) and the Rijksmuseum (1876–1885), both in Amsterdam.
More representative for his oeuvre, however, are numerous churches, of which he designed more than 100.
Moreover, he restored many monuments.
