List of Lieutenants of English Aquitaine

This is a list of lieutenants of the English Duchy of Aquitaine, now in south-west France. While the House of Angevin had possessed Aquitaine, it was lost in the early 13th century. In the 14th century it was again a possession of the English crown, and remained so until the final loss of the Hundred Years' War. The lieutenant acted as military governor of the duchy.
