Justus Friedrich Kritz (1798, in Kühnhausen – 21 April 1869, in Erfurt) was a German schoolteacher and classical philologist, known for his scholarly examination of the Roman historian Sallust.

He studied philology at the universities of Jena and Berlin, where he was a student of August Böckh. He was a member of the philological seminars at Berlin University (1819–21) and served as an assistant teacher at the Grauen Kloster and at Köllnisches Gymnasium in Berlin. From 1824 to 1867 he taught classes at the gymnasium in Erfurt. In 1835 he attained the title of professor.[1][2]
