Jean Hubert (12 June 1902 – 1 July 1994) was a 20th-century French art historian, specializing in religious architecture.

The son and grandsons of chartists, Jean Hubert himself became a student at the École Nationale des Chartes where he supported in 1925 a thesis entituled L'abbaye Notre–Dame de Déols (917–1627) which earned him the degree of archivist paleographer.

He became director of the Departmental Archives of Seine-et-Marne in 1926 and held this position until 1955.[1]

He then succeeded Marcel Aubert in the chair of medieval archeology at the École des Chartes (1955–1973).[2]

Jean Hubert was elected a member of the Académie des inscriptions et belles-lettres in 1963. He was also a member of the Société des Antiquaires de France.
