Prince Józef Klemens Czartoryski (1740–1810) was a Polish nobleman (szlachcic) who owned Korets Castle. He was a Knight of the Order of the White Eagle, awarded in 1767.
Prince Czartoryski was born in Brin on 21 November 1740. He was a son of Prince Stanisław Kostka Czartoryski (a son of Prince Józef Czartoryski and Countess Teresa von Dönhoff) and Anna Rybińska (a daughter of Jakub Zygmunt Rybiński).
