Andreas Duhm (22 August 1883, Göttingen – 23 November 1975, Heidelberg) was a German–Swiss chess master.

Born in Göttingen, Germany, he was the younger brother of Hans Duhm and Dietrich Duhm. His father, Bernhard Duhm, was a professor for Protestant theology (Old Testament) in Göttingen and Basel, Switzerland.[1] Andreas studied theology too.

He also won at Karlsruhe 1911, Kitzingen 1913 (triangular), and Heidelberg 1913 (followed by Solomon Rosenthal, Dietrich Duhm, etc.), and tied for 4-5th with Alexander Ilyin-Genevsky at Montreux 1914 (SUI-ch, D.
