Frederik Stange (1808-1884)was a Norwegian politician and served as Norway's first prime minister.

Until 1873, the king of the personal union between Sweden and Norway governed Norway through two cabinets: one in Stockholm and another, led by a viceroy in Kristiania, now Oslo. After the viceroy position had been vacant for some time, the post of prime minister for Norway was instituted in 1873, and Frederik Stange was appointed. Although there was also a prime minister in Stockholm, the one in Norway had the most influence over state affairs.
