French fencer (1875–1956)
Eugène Henri Callot (20 December 1875 – 22 December 1956) was a French fencer. He competed at the 1896 Summer Olympics in Athens.[1] He was born in La Rochelle.
Callot won the silver medal in the amateur foil event. He went undefeated in his preliminary round group, defeating Henri Delaborde, Periklis Pierrakos-Mavromichalis, and Ioannis Poulos. He then faced fellow Frenchman Eugène-Henri Gravelotte, who had gone undefeated in the other preliminary group, in a final match. There, he lost to Gravelotte 3–2.[2]
Callot died in Paris on 22 December 1956, aged 80.
