Adam Ludwig Lewenhaupt (15 April 1659 – 12 February 1719) was a Swedish general, particularly known for his participation in the Great Northern War.

He attended Lund University, Rostock, Wittenberg and Uppsala, he originally pursued a career in the diplomatic arena, but found this occupation quite undesirable.

He was one of the few successful commanders against the Russians in the Baltic region while King Charles XII was on campaign in Poland and Saxony.

In 1708, he was ordered to march east with a supply column, to support Charles's primary invasion force in Russia.

In 1709, after having connected with the King's army, Lewenhaupt was given command of the infantry at the disastrous battle of Poltava (1709) and the surrender at Perevolochna.
