Olimpia wa Konstantinopoli

Picha takatifu ya Mt. Olimpia.

Olimpia wa Konstantinopoli (pia: Olimpia Kijana ; Konstantinopoli, leo nchini Uturuki, 361 hivi - Nikomedia, leo nchini Uturuki, 25 Julai 408) alikuwa mjane wa ukoo maarufu aliyeishi kitawa na kusaidia maskini.

Hatimaye alifukuzwa na serikali na kufia uhamishoni kwa sababu ya kumuunga mkono askofu Yohane Krisostomo.

Tangu kale anaheshimiwa na Wakatoliki na Waorthodoksi kama mtakatifu.

Sikukuu yake huadhimishwa tarehe 25 Julai.
