Helena Stetkiewicz or Olena Vyhovska (Ukrainian: Олена Виговська; died 1664), was a second wife of Ivan Vyhovsky, Hetman of Zaporizhian Host (year 1657-1659) in Cossack Hetmanate.

Life

Helena Stetkiewicz was a daughter of Bohdan Stetkiewicz, Litvin castellan of Nowogródek (Navahrudak) and Mścisław (Mstsislaw). Her mother Helena Sołomierecka was a Ruthenian Duchess (Knjazna) of Rurikid stock tracing her heritage to the Grand Duchy of Smolensk.

After marriage, the couple lived in Subotiv and Kiev.

She married Hetman Ivan Vyhovsky.

Helena was an influential figure among the Ukrainian Cossacks. She is known to have participated in politics as an adviser and collaborator of her spouse during his reign.

After a murder of Ivan Vyhovsky, Helena moved to a town of Ruda in Ruthenian Voivodeship (today a village in Lviv Oblast) where she reburied her husband and soon died as well. However, there is version of the story which holds that the couple is buried in the Manyava Skete in Carpathian Mountains.
