Gotthard is the first studio album by the hard rock band Gotthard. It was released in 1992. The album peaked at #5 on the Swiss charts, and was certified as Platinum for exceeding 50,000 sales. The album art appears to be based on the Shroud of Turin.

The original version of "Get Down" first appeared on Chris von Rohr's 1987 solo album, Hammer & Tongue, re-issued in 1993 as The Good, The Bad and The Dog.
