Beatrix von Storch (née Beatrix Amelie Ehrengard Eilika, Duchess of Oldenburg; born 27 May 1971 in Lübeck) is a German politician and a Member of the European Parliament for the right-wing Alternative for Germany party, serving since 2014. She is a member of the royal House of Oldenburg.

She was born Beatrix Amelie Ehrengard Eilika, Duchess of Oldenburg, and by tradition holds the style of "Her Highness." She is the elder daughter of Huno, Duke of Oldenburg, and Felicitas-Anita, Countess Schwerin von Krosigk. Her father is a younger son of Nikolaus, Hereditary Grand Duke of Oldenburg (1897–1970), erstwhile head of the former ruling family of Oldenburg. She belongs to the same family as the royal houses of Denmark and Norway, the deposed royal house of Greece, and Charles, Prince of Wales, heir to the thrones of the Commonwealth realms. Her immediate family is itself a branch of the Danish line of the family; she is a male-line descendant of King Frederick I of Denmark and Norway, while her more recent male-line ancestors ruled the Duchy of Holstein-Gottorp and the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg. She is also a descendant of King Frederick William III of Prussia, Emperor Paul I of Russia and Empress Catherine the Great.
