Alexandre Eugène Cellier (17 June 1883, in Molières-sur-Cèze – 4 March 1968, in Paris) was a French organist and composer.

Cellier studied organ with Alexandre Guilmant until 1908. In 1908, he won the first prize for organ at the Conservatoire de Paris. Before that, he also studied with Henri Dallier and Charles-Marie Widor. He was the organist Titulaire of the Temple de l'Étoile in Paris from 1910 until his death in 1968. The organ he used was a 3-manual Cavaillé-Coll organ with 32 stops, which was extended by Mutin (Cavaillé-Coll) in 1914.

In Louis Vierne's biography Mes Souvenirs, he describes Alexandre Cellier as a "cultivated musician" with improvisation skills. He gave concerts abroad.Шаблон:Citation needed
