Wanda Piłsudska (February 7, 1918, Warsaw – January 16, 2001, Warsaw) was a daughter of Józef Piłsudski, and a psychiatrist by profession.

Wanda Piłsudska, of the Piłsudski coat of arms, was born February 7, 1918, the elder daughter of Józef Piłsudski and Aleksandra Szczerbińska. She spent her youth mainly in Warsaw, living with her family at the Belweder Palace, and in Sulejówek at the cottage of Milusin, which Piłsudski had received as a gift from his soldiers.

In September 1939, together with her mother and younger sister Jadwiga Piłsudska, Wanda was evacuated by special airplane via Sweden to England. She studied medicine in Edinburgh, then practiced psychiatry at a Polish hospital outside London. She also worked with the Józef Piłsudski Institute in London.

In the fall of 1990, Wanda returned for good to Poland. In November 2000 she regained the family cottage in Sulejówek, where she planned to create a museum dedicated to her father, Józef Piłsudski.

Wanda Piłsudska died, after a protracted illness, in Warsaw on January 16, 2001. She willed her entire estate for the establishment of a museum honouring Józef Piłsudski.
