Homosexuality and same-sex relationships have been subject to various views and opinions in different societies throughout history, with positions ranging from anywhere between full acceptance to full rejection, in some situations carrying the potential for the application of capital punishment. The following list chronologically details cases in which capital punishment was used against individuals in same-sex relationships or otherwise known to be homosexual.

Note: Mass executions should only be referred to as "together" if it is known or implied that the individuals in question had prior relations with each other.
