Edvard Emile Langberg (1810-1866) also known in Spanish as Emilio Langberg was a Danish-Mexican general who served in Mexico's military during the mid 19th-Century. He participated in the various coups that the government experienced in the era, and defended his adopted country during the Mexican American War. During the War of Reform, he fought on the side of the liberals, and during the Second French Intervention in Mexico he joined the Second Mexican Empire and was eventually killed in action during the Battle of Guadeloupe in Ures, Sonora.
