Stanisław Trembecki (born May 8, 1739 in Jastrzębniki , † December 12, 1812 in Tulczyn ) was a Polish poet.

Trembicki attended the Szkoła Nowodworska in Kraków and was a student of the Latin poet Franciszek Tomecki . He worked in the regional administration, was a member of the regional parliament and inherited an estate from his father. From 1765 he made a series of trips that took him three times to Paris, as well as to Vienna, Karlsbad and Wrocław. On his second trip to Paris in 1769 he acted as envoy for the Confederation of Bar , and on his third trip he returned to Poland with 2,500 books, including Diderot's encyclopedia.

Here he had since been disinherited by his mother and his attempts to regain the inheritance had failed. He settled in Warsaw in 1773 and entered the service of King Stanisław August for a moderate salary as Royal Chamberlain . He accompanied the king on trips to Belarus, Lithuania and the Ukraine and from 1791–92 he traveled to Berlin and Rome. After Stanisław August's abdication, he lived with him in Grodno and later in Petersburg. After the king's death, he was assisted by Adam Jerzy Czartoryski , who organized his financial affairs. He spent the last years of his life on the property of Stanisław Szczęsny Potockis in Tulczyn.

Trembicki's political fable Opuchły and the Epitalamion Dorantowi i Klimenie were his first works during his time in Warsaw . Poems such as Na dzień siódmy września and Nadgrobek hajduka appeared as pamphlets . With Wojciech Mier and Franciszek Karpiński , he translated Jean Racine's drama Andromache , which was performed in Cracow in 1829 (under Mier 's name). In his last years his most important work was the poem Sofiówka , which Adam Mickiewicz admired most .
