Prince Rudolf Land, Crown Prince Rudolf Land, Prince Rudolf Island or Rudolf Island (Russian: Остров Рудольфа) is the northernmost island of the Franz Josef Archipelago, Russia. Cape Fligely, located on Rudolf Island's northern shore, is the northernmost point of Europe and Russia.
Owing to its location, the island has served as a staging area for numerous polar expeditions. The island was named by the Austro-Hungarian North Pole Expedition in honor of Archduke Rudolf (1858–1889), Crown Prince of Austria, Hungary and Bohemia.
