Prince Janusz Ostrogski (Lithuanian: Jonušas Ostrogiškis) (1554 – 17 September 1620 in Tarnów) was a Polish-Lithuanian noble and statesman. He served as a voivode of Volhyn (1584-1593), as a castellan of Kraków (from 1593 on), and as a starosta of Bohuslav (from 1591), Biała Cerkiew (since 1592), Czerkasy and Kaniów (from 1594), Perejasław (1604 on) and Włodzimierz.[1][2][3]

Ostrogski was one of the richest magnates of the Commonwealth, and the last of the male line of his family. Upon his death his estate passed to the Zasławskis.[4]
