Baron Georges-Charles de Heeckeren d'Anthès (5 February 1812 – 2 November 1895) was a French military officer and politician. Despite his later career as a senator under the Second French Empire, D'Anthès's name is most famous because he killed the husband of his wife's sister, Alexander Pushkin, the great Russian poet, in a duel.
