Bruno Schulz (24 February 1865, in Friedeberg – 1 April 1932, in Berlin) was a German architectural historian.

From 1893 onward, he was employed as a Regierungsbaumeister (government architect) in Berlin. In 1897-98 he accompanied Friedrich Sarre on a research trip to Persia, and after his return to Europe, lived and worked in Venice during the years 1899–1900. He then served as technical director of the German archaeological excavation at Baalbek (1900–1904). Later on, he taught classes on the morphology of classical and Renaissance architecture at Technische Hochschule Hannover (today Leibniz University Hannover), and in 1912 was appointed professor of architecture at Technische Hochschule Berlin (today Technische Universität Berlin).^[1]
