Albert van Schendel was a Dutch professional road bicycle racer, born on 21 September 1912 in Lage Zwaluwe in the Netherlands. He died on 12 April 1990 in Muret, France. He was the younger brother of the cyclist Antoon van Schendel, who was also a professional rider. Albert is known for taking part in the 1947 Tour de France. That edition was the first Tour since 1939, because the race had been cancelled during the Second World War, so his name belongs to the field that restarted the great French stage race after the long interruption.
