Princess Olga Alexandrovna Yurievskaya (Russian: О́льга Алекса́ндровна Ю́рьевская; 7 November 1873 – 10 August 1925) was the natural daughter of Alexander II of Russia by his mistress (later his wife), Princess Catherine Dolgorukova. In 1880, she was legitimated by her parents' morganatic marriage.
After her father's assassination in 1881, her mother brought her up in France. In 1895, she married a German nobleman, becoming Countess Merenberg, and spent most of the rest of her life in Germany.
