Carolina Michaëlis de Vasconcelos, born Karoline Michaelis (March 15, 1851 - November 18, 1925) was a German-Portuguese romanist.

She was born in Berlin as the last of five children of Gustav Michaelis, a mathematics teacher. In 1876 she married Joaquim António da Fonseca Vasconcelos, founder of Portuguese art history writing.
