The princely title of Prince of Craon was a title used by the Beauvau family using their status as Prince of the Holy Roman Empire which was gained in 1722 which was later fully recognised by Louis XV of France in 1755 and was inherited by legitimate male offspring. It became extinct in 1982 upon the death of Prince Marc de Beauvau-Craon without a male heir.
