Victor Le Gorgeu (5 May 1881 – 11 September 1963) was a French physician, politician, and resistance figure during World War II.

Le Gorgeu graduated as a physician at the École du service de santé des armées in Bordeaux in 1904, earning accolades for his academic performance.

During World War I, Le Gorgeu served as a battalion physician and later as head of a field ambulance unit in the Army of the Orient.

Le Gorgeu entered politics in 1919, becoming a departmental councilor for Finistère and from 1929 as a modernising mayor of Brest[1] which was brought to an end in 1941[2] by his refusal to vote on an address of confidence to Marshal Petain.

[4] An outspoken opponent of the Vichy government, Le Gorgeu was one of 80 parliamentarians to vote against granting full powers to Philippe Pétain in 1940.
