The Iphigénie class was a group of nine 32-gun/12-pounder
frigates of the
French Navy, built during the late 1770s at
Lorient (2 ships) and
Saint Malo (7 ships). They were designed by
Léon Guignace. The seven built at Saint Malo were initially numbered Nos. 1 – 7 respectively, and not given names until October 1777 (for Nos 1 – 4) and the start of 1778 (Nos. 5 – 7); all seven were captured by the
British Navy between 1779 and the end of 1800. Of the two built at Lorient, the Spanish captured one, and a storm wrecked the other.
