Christoph Wölfflin (1625–1688) was a Lutheran theologian of Germany.

Life
Christoph Wölfflin was born in Würtemberg, either at Owen, or at Kirchheim unter Teck, on 23 December 1625. He moved to Tübingen and studied at the university there, was in 1651 deacon at Aurach, in 1657 at Tübingen, in 1659 professor of Greek, and in 1660 was made doctor and professor of theology.

In 1669 Duke Eberhard III appointed him court preacher, and provost of Lorch. In 1680 Duke Frederic Charles appointed him provost of Stuttgart, a position which has never again been occupied after Wölfflin.

He died at Stuttgart on 30 October 1688.
