Erzsébet Rákóczi (1655–1707), was a Hungarian countess and poet.

She was the daughter of the judge . In 1669 she married count Erdödy Adam and in 1672 she married count . In the 1670s, she possibly had an affair with her friend, Paul Esterhazy. In 1685, she and her spouse had a crisis in their marriage which attracted wide attention and was the subject for court proceedings. Officially reconciled, they lived separated since then: she at her estate in Croatia, and he in Vienna.

Erzsébet Rákóczi is known for her love poems and for the letters from her correspondence with her spouse from 1672–1707, which are regarded as important historic documents.
