The Conquérant was a Bucentaure-class 80-gun ship of the line of the French Navy, designed by Sané.
She was commissioned in Anvers under Captain Lafond in the Scheldt squadron. Following the Bourbon Restoration, she was sent to Brest, where she underwent a refit in 1821, and was sent to Toulon in 1824. She took part in the Morea expedition in 1827, and in the Invasion of Algiers in 1830.
In November 1830, she was disarmed in Toulon, and was struck the next year. From 1830, she was used as a barracks hulk, until 1842, when she was broken up.
