French ship Royal Louis (1759)

Royal Louis was a 116-gun ship of the line of the Royal French Navy, designed in 1757 by Jacques-Luc Coulomb and constructed in 1757 to 1762 by Laurent Coulomb at Brest Dockyard.

In August 1771, when in dry dock, she was found to have deteriorated beyond repair and was eventually demolished in 1773, without having seen any service.

A 1⁄18 scale model on display at the Musée national de la Marine in Paris, MnM 13 MG 32, is thought to represent Royal Louis.
