Josef Klička (December 15, 1855, Klatovy, Czech Republic – March 28, 1937, Klatovy) was a Czech organist, violinist, composer, conductor and pedagogue. He produced several large organ compositions in the style of late romanticism; these have been recorded on CD.

A graduate in organ-playing from the Conservatoire in Prague, Klička subsequently worked as organist and conductor and eventually became acting professor at his old school. This was from 1892 to 1895, as deputy for Dvořák, then in the USA.
Klička's son was Václav Klička (1882–1953), a harpist. Václav also taught for some years at the Prague Conservatoire.
