Ludwig Hörmann (born September 6, 1918 in München; died June 19, 2001) was a German racing cyclist.

Ludwig Hörmann, called “Wiggerl”, was considered the most successful and popular München racing cyclist of the post-war period. As an amateur he was first a member of the club RV Express, later of the club RC Amor München. In 1940 he won the race Rund um die Hainleite.

He won the German championship title nine times on track and road; with his younger brother Hans he was victorious in the two-man team race in 1951 (he also won his first road title in 1951). Both had already won the championship in team pursuit in 1942. Hörmann was also considered the favorite in the first championship after World War II. However, he was denied the start by the responsible officials of German professional cycling, as Hörmann insisted on receiving a premium for using the prescribed equipment. Of the professional races held in Germany in the 1950s, he won the Grand Prix der Weinstraße in 1951.

He gained international recognition at the Professional Road World Championship in 1952 in Luxembourg, when he finished third behind Heinz Müller from Schwenningen and the Swiss Gottfried Weilenmann. In addition, he won five six-day races. He ended his successful career in 1954.
