Jean II de Brosse, also Jehan II de Brosse (1432 – 6 August 1482), was the elder son of Marshal of France Jean I de Brosse. He would become chamberlain of the king of France in 1449. He married Nicole, Countess of Penthièvre, daughter of Charles, Seigneur d'Avaugour and Isabeau de Vivonne. Nicole later brought him, through inheritance in 1479, the County of Penthièvre in the Duchy of Brittany.

Jean is known to have rebuilt the donjon in Fouras in 1480–1490.
