The 1957 Liège–Bastogne–Liège was the 43rd edition of the Liège–Bastogne–Liège cycle race and was held on 5 May 1957. The race started and finished in Liège. The race was won by two riders, Frans Schoubben and Germain Derycke.^[2]

Germain Derycke was first over the line, but because he crossed a closed rail crossing, the second-place rider, Frans Schoubben, was promoted to first as well. Derijcke was not disqualified, because he had won by three minutes advantage; judges felt he had not gained that much time from illegally crossing the railway.^[2]
