Countess Etelka (Adelhaid) Szapáry de Szapár, Muraszombat et Széchy-Sziget (26 September 1798 – 10 November 1876) was a Hungarian noblewoman and a landowner.
Born as a member of an old noble House of Szapáry, she was the second daughter of Count Péter Szápáry de Muraszombath, Széchysziget et Szapár (1766-1827) and his wife, Countess Júlia Csáky de Körösszeg et Adorján (1770-1827).
