List of presidents of the Senate of France

This article lists the presidents of the Senate of France (French: Président du Sénat français; official translation: Speaker of the Senate)[1] and assimilated chambers.

The Senate is the upper house of the French Parliament.

With the Restoration in 1814, a new Chamber of Peers was created, on the model of the British House of Lords.

At first it contained hereditary peers, but following the July Revolution of 1830, it became a body to which one was appointed for life.

With the new constitution of the Fifth Republic in 1959, the older name of Senate was restored.
