Baron Zsigmond Perényi de Perény (18 November 1783 – 24 October 1849) was a Hungarian politician, who served as Speaker of the House of Magnates in 1849. After defeat of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 he was executed because his name appeared in the Hungarian Declaration of Independence which was declared by the Diet of Hungary in Debrecen on 14 April 1849.

His grandson was Zsigmond Perényi, Speaker of the House of Magnates and Minister of the Interior.
