Oscar Hoppe (June 11, 1886 – January 19, 1936) was a figure skater who competed in men's singles and pair skating. First he represented the German Empire, then Czechoslovakia. He was born in Troppau in what was then the duchy of Austrian Silesia in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and died in the same city (known in Czech as Opava), which by then was in Czechoslovakia.
With his wife Else Hoppe, he won the bronze medal at the 1927 World Figure Skating Championships in Vienna.{{cite book|author=Alice Berman|title=Skater's Edge Sourcebook: Ice Skating Resource Guide|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=2wfdLHKSrE0C&q=%22Oscar+Hoppe%22|date=1998-01-01|publisher=Skater's Edge|isbn=978-0-9643027-1-6}}{{cite book|author=Howard Bass|title=Let's go skating|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=pezbXU4hdScC&q=%22Oscar+Hoppe%22|date=1974-01-01|publisher=Paul|isbn=978-0-09-121050-2}}{{cite book|author=Raymond Flower|title=The history of skiing and other winter sports|url=https://archive.org/details/historyofskiingo0000flow|url-access=registration|quote=Oscar Hoppe.|year=1976|publisher=Methuen}}{{cite book|author=James R.
