Urszula Meyerin (also, Meierin; 1570–1635) was a politically influential Polish courtier and mistress to King Sigismund III of Poland. Her real surname may have been Gienger (or Gienger von Grünbüchl), but that remains in dispute;[1] she signed her letters Ursula Meyerin. In the German language, that surname means "chamberlain", "administrator", "manager".
