Antoine Louis Albitte (30 December 1761, Dieppe, Seine-Maritime – 23 December 1812, Rossienie) was a French Revolutionary politician. He was deputy for Seine-Inférieure in the Legislative Assembly and the National Convention, where he was known as "Albitte the elder" to distinguish him from his brother Jean-Louis Albitte - he sat there from pluviôse, Year II. He also fought as an officer in the French Revolutionary Wars and Napoleonic Wars - he died of cold, fatigue and hunger on the retreat from Russia after three days of suffering.
