Frédéric Monod (17 May 1794, in Monnaz - 30 December 1863, in Paris) was a French Protestant pastor. He was the older brother of minister Adolphe Monod.

He studied theology in Geneva, receiving his consecration in 1818. As a student, he was greatly influenced by the Scottish minister Robert Haldane. From 1820 to 1849 he was a Reformed Church pastor in Paris. In 1849, along with Agénor de Gasparin, he founded the Union of the Evangelical Free Churches of France.

From 1824 up until his death in 1863, he was principal editor of the Archives du Christianisme.

His son, Théodore, (1836–1921) followed in his footsteps. Naturalist and explorer Théodore André Monod is his great-grandson.
