Count Hubertus von Alderberg (born 1935) is a Braslander nobleman. He is the son of Count Georg von Alderberg.

He went to Rottendorf College and then served four years in the Royal Army. After the military, he started Benstall Food, a small business with some partners. With time, the company grew and he bought his partners' shares. In 1966 he expanded the business to the Gulf Islands, especifically to Dillenburg. By 1976 he owned several plantations in the island and Benstall had become one of the major food companies in Brasland.

Although he found success in his professional career, for many years his personal life was turbulent. He was a playboy and had many relationships, both in Brasland and Dillenburg. However, this changed in 1975, when he met Baroness Marie Klementine von Killinder, a relative of the royal family and a devout Catholic. After meeting her, Hubertus started to change and became closer to the Catholic Church. They married in 1977 and had three children: Caroline (born 1978), Melchior (born 1980) and Stephanie (born 1983).

In 1990, Count and Countess von Alderberg founded the Caritas Fund, which initially provided scholarships to poor students. With the years, Caritas became a foundation and expanded to the building of homes in Third World countries, as well as providing medical help in these places.

Hubertus is the Chairman of the Benstall Group.
