Le Pen, who had been in a care facility for several weeks, died at midday on Tuesday “surrounded by his loved ones”, his family said in a statement shared with AFP.
Le Pen was known for his rhetoric against immigration and multiculturalism and his controversial statements, including Holocaust denial, led to multiple convictions and strained his political alliances.
His daughter, Marine Le Pen, took over as party chief in 2011. She has since rebranded the party as National Rally, turning it into one of France’s main political forces.
