Baron de Richemont (c. 1785-10 August 1853) was one of several people who claimed to be Louis XVII, the Dauphin who died during the French Revolution.
His real identity was probably either Henri Hebert (born 1788) or Claude Perrin (born 1786), the former being possibly just the false identity of the latter.[1][2]
De Richemont was in prison in Milan for seven years and began to put forward his claims in Paris in 1828. In 1833, he was arrested, brought to trial in the following year, and condemned to 12 years' imprisonment. To complicate matters, at one point during his trial a letter was read out from Karl Wilhelm Naundorff, arguably the best known Louis XVII claimant. De Richemont escaped after a few months and left the country, returning in 1840. He died at Gleizé, the name of Louis Charles de France being inscribed on his tomb until the government ordered its removal.
