Prince Oskar of Prussia (Oskar Karl Gustav Adolf) (27 July 1888 in Potsdam, Germany – 27 January 1958 in Munich, Germany) was the son of Kaiser Wilhelm II and Duchess Augusta Viktoria of Schleswig-Holstein.

Prince Oskar served as the Herrenmeister ("Master of the Knights") of the Order of Saint John (Bailiwick of Brandenburg). He was married on 31 July 1914 to Countess Ina-Marie Helene Adele Elise von Bassewitz (27 January 1888 – 17 September 1973). This marriage was morganatic, and so upon marriage Ina-Marie was created Countess von Ruppin. In 1920, she and her children were granted the rank of Prince and Princess of Prussia with the style Royal Highness. They had four children.
