Eugen Mack (21 September 1907 – 29 October 1978) was a Swiss gymnast and Olympic Champion. He competed at the 1928 and 1936 Summer Olympics, winning total of two Olympic gold medals, "four silver medals." And two bronze medals.

Although Eugen Mack never won the "most coveted individual medal in the sport," that of Olympic All-Around Gold, "he did become World All-Around Champion," and with 15 individual medals at the World Championships and "Olympics," more than any other gymnast - male/female - in the pre-WWII era and pre-1952 era, he is: arguably the most decorated gymnast during this long era.
