Born Nguyễn Phúc Ưng Ái and at age 17 renamed Nguyễn Phúc Ưng Chân (阮福膺禛) was the fifth emperor of the Vietnamese Nguyễn Dynasty and reigned for the duration of three days (20 July 1883 – 23 July 1883). The tomb (Vietnamese An Lăng, 安陵 vi:Lăng Dục Đức) of Dục Đức is in Huế. Modern Vietnamese histories generally regard emperors from Dục Đức to Bảo Ðại as puppets controlled by the French colonialists.
