Anna Amalia von Helvig (August 16, 1776 – September 17, 1831) was a German and Swedish artist, writer, translator, socialite, Salonist and culture personality.

She was given a good artistic education and was encouraged by Goethe and Schiller to write poems.

[1] Married in 1803 to General Karl Gottfried von Helvig, she moved to Stockholm in 1804, where she established a salon and became a known personality in the capital's cultural life.

She returned to Germany in 1810, but spent the years from 1814 to 1816 in Sweden, where she resided in Uppsala as a part of the circle around the salonist Malla Silfverstolpe.
