Messier 60 (også kjent som M60 og NGC 4649) er en elliptisk galakse beliggende omtrent 55 millioner lysår unna jorden,[3] i stjernebildet Jomfruen. Galaksen er vekselvirker med NGC 4647, og sammen går de under betegnelsen Arp 116.[4] M60 og den nærliggende galaksen Messier 59 ble begge oppdaget av Johann Gottfried Köhler i april 1779 mens han observerte en komet i det samme området av himmelen.[5] Charles Messier førte begge opp i Messierkatalogen omtrent tre dager etter Koehlers oppdagelse.[5]
