Friedrich von Löwis of Menar (Germanized name; Russian: Фёдор Фёдорович Левиз / Fedor Fedorovich Leviz) (6 September 1767, Haapsalu - 16 April 1824) was a Russian lieutenant general of the Napoleonic Wars. His family (the family name commonly spelled in English as Lewis) came from South Scotland to Sweden around 1630. By the time of Fedor's birth, it had become a well-established noble family settled in Livonia in the Russian Empire.
