Połągiew is a Polish surname, most notably associated with a prominent historical figure of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
Jerzy Połągiew (died 1578) was a Polish nobleman (szlachcic) and statesman. He is primarily known for holding the office of Voivode of Podlaskie (Wojewoda podlaski) from 1572 until his death in 1578.
During his tenure as Voivode, Połągiew played a role in the political life of the Commonwealth, particularly during the interregnum periods following the death of Sigismund II Augustus, the last Jagiellonian king, and the subsequent elections of Henry of Valois and Stephen Báthory. His administrative responsibilities involved governing the Podlaskie Voivodeship, a significant administrative division of the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland.
The surname Połągiew, like many Polish surnames, likely originated from a toponymic or patronymic source, though its specific etymology beyond its association with this historical figure is less commonly detailed in historical records.
