Lanfranc I of Bergamo (c. 895/900–950/954) was the son of Giselbert I of Bergamo and Rotruda of Pavia. He was a member of the dynasty known to historians as the Giselbertiners (or Giselbertini).

Lanfranc I is first documented as a royal vassal (vassus regis) in 935.

By 945 he was entitled count (probably of Bergamo) in a diploma issued by Hugh of Italy. Later that year Lanfranc became count palatine of Bergamo through the intervention of Berengar II of Italy.

He died sometime between 950 and 954.

With his wife, whose name is not known, Lanfranc I had several children, including:

  • Giselbert II of Bergamo
  • Franca
