C. Herschel is a small lunar impact crater that lies on the western part of Mare Imbrium.
It is named after British astronomer Caroline Herschel.
It is a circular, bowl-shaped formation that has not undergone significant erosion.
The interior floor has the same low albedo as the surrounding lunar mare.
To the south-southwest is the similar crater Heis.
C. Herschel lies on a wrinkle ridge of the lunar mare named the Dorsum Heim.

It was discovered by Karl Ludwig Harding between 1820 and 1924.
