Władysław Wołłowicz

Władysław Wołłowicz (Lithuanian: Vladislovas Valavičius) (1615 – 14 September 1668, Vilnius) was a nobleman, commander and statesman of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.

He took part in the Smolensk War and in 1634 was briefly held prisoner by the Russians.

During the Swedish invasion he accompanied John II Casimir Vasa to Silesia and he became the only Lithuanian official to sign the Łańcut Confederation.

In 1658 he took part in the Russo-Polish War, in which he and Nicholas Judyckim suffered a crushing defeat at Miadel on 8 February 1659.

After John II Casimir's abdication in 1668 he supported tsarevich Feodor (the future Feodor III of Russia) as candidate to be king of Poland.
