Rosa "Ossi" Reichert (July 25, 1925 in Gunzesried - July 16, 2006) was a German Alpine skier.

She won the 1956 Winter Olympics giant slalom, Germany's sole gold medal, at the Cortina d'Ampezzo games. After having seriously injured an ankle in 1954, she was not expected to do well at these games. She also drew the #1 start position for the one-run event. Putzi Frandl, who won the Silver medal in the event, once stated that, "Ossi wsa disappointed to draw #1 as that was usually not a good position. The first racer down the course usually has to scrape off a bit of snow, which slows that racer down. But Ossi had a great run and overcame that difficulty."

She also participated in the 1952 Winter Olympics in Oslo, where she won a silver medal in the slalom beating her fellow German Annemarie Buchner for the bronze medal.

After having injured an ankle in 1954, she came back to win the giant slalom and Germany's sole gold medal at the 1956 Winter Olympics in Cortina d'Ampezzo

Reichert also was German champion three time. She retired to run the hotel of her parents in her home town the Allgäu region.
