The VI Cavalry Corps of the Grande Armée was the name of a French military formation that had an ephemeral existence during the Napoleonic Wars. The all-dragoon unit was created in February 1814 and François Étienne de Kellermann was appointed as its commander. The corps was formed by taking the dragoon division of Samuel-François Lhéritier from the V Cavalry Corps and joining it with the newly arrived dragoon division of Anne-François-Charles Trelliard from the Spanish front. Kellermann led the corps in actions at Mormant, Troyes, and Bar-sur-Aube. After Emperor Napoleon abdicated in early April 1814, the corps ceased to exist.
