Baron Frederik (Fritz) Hartvig Herman Wedel Jarlsberg (born 7 July 1855 in Oslo, died 27 July 1942 in Lisbon) was a Norwegian aristocrat, jurist and diplomat. He maintained the title of baron in Denmark, which had not abolished nobility titles following the separation of Denmark-Norway. Earlier in Norway, his family was officially recognised as barons. He was active in Norwegian-Swedish diplomacy and played a central role in the 1905 dissolution of the union between these countries. He was offered the post as minister of foreign affairs three times.
