The Jantzen Beach Carousel, also known as the C. W. Parker Four-Row Park Carousel, is a carousel formerly installed at Portland, Oregon's Jantzen Beach, in the United States. It was built circa 1904 by C. W. Parker. An article in The Columbian said it "made its original debut" in 1921 in Venice, Los Angeles. In 1928, the carousel was repossessed and its parts were relocated to Portland for the opening of Jantzen Beach Amusement Park. Since then, the park became a shopping mall, Jantzen Beach Center. The carousel was removed during the mall's $50 million renovation in 2012, and reportedly remains in storage on site.

In 1987, the carousel was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, along with four others. However, it was delisted in 2008 because of plans for relocation to the Portland Children's Museum, which never came to fruition. The carousel has been designated "endangered" by the Architectural Heritage Center. In 2012, it was included in the Historic Preservation League of Oregon's list of "Oregon's Most Endangered Places".

In 2015, the mall's owner, a company called Edens, said the carousel was being "safely stored in a camera-monitored, climate-controlled" building at the shopping center. However, in 2017, The Oregonian reported that the current owner and location of the carousel are unknown. Edens has said the carousel was sold to Kimco, while the latter company says its purchase of Jantzen Beach Center included the land and buildings, but not the carousel.
