Konrad von Reisberg († June 8, 1443 ) was Bishop of Seckau .

Konrad von Reisberg came from a Carinthian noble family and was related to the Salzburg Archbishop Johann II von Reisberg . Konrad was a deacon of the diocese of Salzburg and pastor of Veitsberg near Leoben. He took part in the Council of Constance and was provided there with the parish in 1418, shortly afterwards he was ordained a priest. Just one week after the death of Ulrich von Albeck , Bishop of Seckau , he was appointed and consecrated as his successor by the Archbishop of Salzburg, Johann von Reisberg.

His family connections also provided him with the Salzburg archdeaconate of the Lower Mark. In 1435 Duke Friedrich IV placed the church of Seckau under his special protection. Konrad von Reisberg died in 1443, he was probably buried in Seckau Cathedral, but his grave is no longer preserved.
