The Duchy of Wolgast-Stolp,[a] also known as the Duchy of Wolgast and Stolp, and the Duchy of Wołogoszcz and Słupsk,[b] was a feudal duchy in Western Pomerania within the Holy Roman Empire. Its capital was Wolgast. It was ruled by the Griffin dynasty.[2] It existed in the eras of Late Middle Ages and the Early modern period, from 1532 to 1625.[2]

The state was formed on 21 November 1532, in the partition of the Duchy of Pomerania, with duke Philip I, as its first ruler.[2] It existed until 1625, when, under the rule of duke Bogislaw XIV, it was incorporated into the unified Duchy of Pomerania.[3]
