Vainius or Voin (died between 13381 and 13421) was the Lithuanian Prince of Polotsk from 1328 to his death. Very little is known about Vainius, brother of Gediminas, Grand Duke of Lithuania. He is mentioned in written sources in 1324 for the first time. In 1328 he, already as Prince of Polotsk, signed a treaty with the Livonian Order and Novgorod. His only known son Liubartas died in 1342 during fights with the Livonian Order.
