Alfred Georges Naccache (or Naqqache; Arabic: ألفرد جورج النقاش; 3 May 1888[1]– 26 September 1978[2]) was a Lebanese statesman, Prime Minister and head of state during the French Mandate of Lebanon. In 1919 he contributed to La Revue Phénicienne which was established by Charles Corm in Beirut.[3] He was serving as prime minister when he was appointed president by the French authorities after the resignation of Emile Edde. Pierre-Georges Arlabosse served as acting president for 6 days before Naccache assumed office. From 1953 to 1955 he served as foreign minister. The National Museum of Beirut was opened by him on 27 May 1942.[4]
A street in the Lebanese capital Beirut is named in his honor.
