Widukind, en français Guiteclin, également connu sous le nom Widuking ou Wittekind, est un chef des Saxons et le principal adversaire du roi franc Charlemagne pendant la guerre des Saxons de 777 à 785. Il est l'un des plus fermes opposants à la conquête franque et à la christianisation de son peuple, ce qui fait également de lui l'un des principaux adversaires que Charlemagne rencontre durant ses campagnes. Charlemagne prévaut finalement, organise la Saxe comme une province franque et ordonne la conversion des païens saxons au catholicisme romain. Plus tard, Widukind devient un symbole de l'indépendance saxonne et une figure de légende - le Codex Wittekindeus lui aurait appartenu.
