HR 6801 is a double star in Sagittarius. The primary star is a class K0III[3] (orange giant) star. Its apparent magnitude is 4.96[2] and it is approximately 256 light years away based on parallax.[1] The secondary, B, has magnitude 11.51 and separation 43.7".[9]

It was designated as 1 Sagittarii by Flamsteed, but is now often referred to as 11 Sagittarii. Flamsteed's 11 Sgr actually refers to a different, much fainter star.[10]
