Franz Riklin (1878-1938) was a Swiss psychiatrist.

Early in his career he worked at the Burghölzli Hospital in Zurich under Eugen Bleuler (1857-1939), and studied experimental psychology with Emil Kraepelin (1856-1926) and Gustav Aschaffenburg (1866-1944) in Heidelberg. Beginning in 1904 he was a physician at the psychiatric clinic in Rheinau. In 1910 Riklin became the first secretary of the International Psychoanalytic Association (IPA).

Riklin is remembered for his collaboration with Carl Jung (1875-1961) on word association tests. In 1905 the treatise Experimentelle Untersuchungen über die Assoziationen Gesunder was published as a result of their research. Another important work by Riklin is Wunscherfüllung und Symbolik im Märchen (Wish-Fulfillment and Symbolism in Fairy Tales).
