Erhard von Reitzenstein (1659-1695) was a Braslander nobleman. He was the son of Albert von Reitzenstein.

He was a first cousin of Frederick Balkronn, who led the Braslander rebels against the empire and was later crowned King. Erhard fought with Frederick, but he was killed in 1695.

In 1690 he married Gertrud von Lindschersau. They had two children: Maria (born 1691) and Ludwig (born 1693). In 1700 Gertrud and her children were elevated to the rank of Counts by King Frederick I.
