Olga Sergeyevna Pawlischtschewa ( Russian Ольга Сергеевна Павлищева * November 20 . Jul / 1. December  1797 greg. In Saint Petersburg , † May 2. . Jul / 14. May  1868 . Greg ibid), the sister of Alexander Pushkin , was the daughter of the couple Nadezhda and Sergei Pushkin .

On January 27, 1828, Olga secretly married the nobleman Nikolai Ivanovich Pavlishchev, son of a colonel from the Yekaterinoslav governorate . The parents can only make friends with their son-in-law, a graduate of the elite Lyceum Tsarskoje Selo , little by little. Vasily Zhukovsky refers to this incident a week later in a letter to his niece Alexandra Wojeikova. Olga asked her brother Alexander: "Please tell our parents that I got married yesterday." Pushkin, who had had a warm relationship with the older sister since childhood, suppressed everyone's displeasure at the surprise and immediately complied with the request. The father initially fell ill from being shocked, but they have made up in the meantime.

Pavlishchev later made it up to court marshal (= 3rd place in the hierarchy of officials ).

Pawel Annenkow used notes from the Pavlishchev couple on the family history of the Pushkins from the first years of the 19th century in his Pushkin biography in 1851.

Olga Pavlishcheva was buried in the St. Petersburg New Maiden Cemetery. Around 1935 her remains were transferred to the Tichwin cemetery .

Pushkin dedicated three poems to his sister Olga.

  • 1814: К сестре ( To the sister ),
  • 1819: Позволь душе моей открыться пред тобою ( let me spread my soul out before you! ),
  • 1825: Семейственной любви и нежной дружбы ради ( On the tender sibling love! ).
