Frederik Schenck van Toutenburg (c.1503 25 August 1580) was the first Archbishop of Utrecht from 1559 to 1580. Prior to Schenck's ministry as archbishop, Utrecht was a bishopric with a succession of sixty bishops. The last bishop of Utrecht, prior to Schenck was George van Egmond. After Schenck's death in 1580, the see would remain vacant until Sasbold Vosmeer assumed the archbishopric in 1602.
