Catharina de' Medici (Frans: Catherine de Médicis) (Florence, 13 april 1519 — Blois, 5 januari 1589) was koningin van Frankrijk van 1547 tot 1559. Ze was een dochter van Lorenzo II de' Medici, heerser van Florence, die op zijn beurt weer een neef van paus Leo X was. Zij huwde in oktober 1533 op 14-jarige leeftijd met de even oude Hendrik II van Frankrijk, tweede zoon van Frans I, die in 1547 zijn vader opvolgde.
