Mont-Blanc was a Téméraire class 74-gun third-rate ship of the line
of the French Navy. In the course of her career, she was renamed no
less than four times, reflecting the tides of politics with the French Revolution.

During the Wars of the First and Second Coalitions, Mont-Blanc took part in the last actions of the Glorious First of June, in the Croisière du Grand Hiver, in the Battle of Hyères Islands and in Bruix’ expedition of 1799; after peace was restored in the Treaty of Lunéville, she served during the Saint-Domingue expedition.

Mont-Blanc took part of the vanguard of the French fleet the Battle of Trafalgar
on 21 October 1805, and consequently saw little action as this division
was cut off from the battle. The squadron was destroyed during the Battle of Cape Ortegal on 4 November 1805, where Mont-Blanc was captured. She was recommissioned in the Royal Navy but never saw action again.
