Louis XVI dari Perancis

Louis XVI (23 Ogos 1754 – 21 Januari 1793), ialah Raja Perancis daripada Wangsa Bourbon sejak tahun 1774 hingga 1792. Kekuasaannya dihentikan dan beliau ditangkap pada Revolusi 10 Ogos, dan akhirnya dihukum dengan gilotin atas dakwaan pengkhianatan pada 21 Januari 1793, di hadapan para penonton yang menyoraki hukumannya.

Louis XVI awalnya dicintai rakyatnya, namun ketidakcekapannya dalam pemerintahan dan sikapnya yang konservatif membuatkan rakyatnya berbalik membencinya. Isterinya ialah Marie Antoinette, dan bersamanya mereka mempunyai empat orang anak:
 Marie-Thérèse-Charlotte 
 Louis-Joseph-Xavier-François
 Louis-Charles
 Sophie-Beatrix
