Vicente Lukbán y Rilles or Vicente Lucbán Rilles (February 11, 1860 – November 16, 1916) was a Philippine general in the Philippine Republican Army and politician who served as the governor of Tayabas (now Quezon) from 1912 to 1916.
He was also an officer in Emilio Aguinaldo's staff during the Philippine Revolution and the politico-military chief of Samar and Leyte during the Philippine–American War. Some sources credit him as the strategist of the Battle of Balangiga, in which more than 50 American troopers were ambushed and killed.
