Kuhn Island (Russian: Остров Куна; Ostrov Kuna) is an island in Franz Josef Land, Arkhangelsk Oblast, Russia.
Between its westernmost point, Cape Golovin (Russian: мыс Головина), and its easternmost point, Cape Obryvisty (Russian: мыс Обрывистый), it is about 8 km (5 mi) in length.
Just south of Kuhn Island lies the small Brosch Island (Russian: Остров Брош, Ostrov Brosh) with a maximum height of 85 m (279 ft).
[1] The island was discovered by the Austro-Hungarian North Pole expedition in 1874 and was named in honour of the Austro-Hungarian minister of war Franz Kuhn von Kuhnenfeld, a patron of Julius Payer, one of the expedition's leaders.
