Marie Anne de Bourbon (18 April 1689 – 21 March 1720) was a princess of the French royal blood at the French court of Versailles. She was the first wife of Louis Henri, Duke of Bourbon. She died childless during the Regency of Philippe II, Duke of Orléans, who was her husband's uncle. Marie Anne was known as "the younger duchess" to distinguish her from her mother-in-law, Louise-Françoise de Bourbon. Despite her husband being the Prince of Condé, he continued to use the title of Duke of Bourbon, the title by which his wife was known. She and her husband had no issue prior to Marie Anne's death and the Duke remarried Caroline of Hesse-Rotenburg in 1728.
