The Crown of Rus, also known as the Crown of Kingdom of Galicia–Volhynia, is the crown with which Daniel of Galicia was crowned in 1253 by a papal archbishop in Drohiczyn (Dorohochyn). The coronation of Daniel took place around the same time as Mindaugas.

The Crown of Rus is related to territories around the city of Lviv and should not be confused with the modern Russia based in Moscow.
