This the list of voivodes of Kiev. A Kiev voivode (Polish: wojewoda kijowski) was the major administrative position in Kiev Voivodship, in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania from 1471 until 1569 and in of the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland from 1569 until 1793.
In the 15–16th centuries, all of the voivodes were of Lithuanian or Ruthenian origin, such as Holszański and Radziwiłł. Later belonged to Eastern Orthodox families of Ostrogski and Zaslawski and for short period Movilești (Lozynski). From the beginning of the 17th century, the voivodes of Polish origin, along with Ruthenian, were chosen for the office, particularly Potocki.
