Brückner Glacier (67°18′S 67°0′W) is a glacier flowing northeast on Arrowsmith Peninsula to Muller Ice Shelf in the southwest part of Lallemand Fjord, Loubet Coast. It was mapped by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey from surveys and air photos, 1956–59, and named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after Eduard Brückner, German pioneer glaciologist.
