Grigory Goldenberg (also referred to as Gregory Goldenberg; 1856—1880) was a Russian revolutionary and member of the «Narodnaya Volya» (People's Will) organisation.

Revolutionary life

Born at Berdichev, son of a Jewish merchant, he moved to Minsk where he became involved in revolutionary politics.

Goldenberg was arrested and exiled in 1878 to Arkhangelsk for his revolutionary activities. He escaped and joined Narodnaya Volya and assassinated Kharkov Governor-General Prince Dmitri Kropotkin (cousin of a famous anarchist) in 1879. He was then arrested in November 1879, confessing his involvement and naming several other «Narodnaya Volya» members.

Goldenberg committed suicide in prison July 1880.
