Charlemagne was a 19th-century shipwrecked at Johnston's Point, Feochaig, Kintyre, in the Firth of Clyde. It was lost in a storm in 1842, carrying iron cargo from Wales to Glasgow, with no lives lost but the ship and its cargo lost; the wreck remains a notable example of 19th-century industrial maritime trade in Scotland.
