Victor Claude Alexandre Fanneau de La Horie (Javron-les-Chapelles; 5 January 1766 - Paris; 29 October 1812) was a French general, conspirator against Napoleon, and godfather of Victor Hugo.

Victor Fanneau de La Horie served the First French Republic in the Army of the Rhine with Joseph Hugo and became close friends with the younger man.

He served in the revolutionary armies, but souring on Napoleon joined the Moreau conspiracy.

When the plan fell apart in 1801, he was proscribed and went into hiding on the estate of Joseph Hugo.

[1] After fleeing abroad, he returned to France in 1808 and was unduly arrested and unlawfully held at La Force Prison.
