The Trocadéro was a first-rate 118-gun ship of the line of the French Navy, of the Océan type, designed by Jacques-Noël Sané.

Ordered as Formidable, she was commissioned in Toulon as Trocadéro in 1824.

On 24 March 1836, as she was refitting in Toulon, she was accidentally set afire. The fire destroyed her.^[1]
