Het Beleg van Luxemburg was een belegering van de stad Luxemburg door Franse revolutionaire troepen van 22 november 1794 tot 7 juni 1795, tijdens de Eerste Coalitieoorlog. De Vesting Luxemburg stond destijds bekend als schier onneembaar. De zeven maanden durende belegering eindigde met de Luxemburgse capitulatie op 7 juni 1795. Het garnizoen wist zo lang stand te houden tegen de Fransen dat Lazare Carnot de stad Luxemburg "de beste vesting ter wereld, na Gibraltar" noemde. Zo kreeg Luxemburg de bijnaam "het Gibraltar van het noorden".
