Martin Helwig (5 November 1516 – 26 January 1574) was a German cartographer of and from Silesia. He was born in Neisse and died in Breslau, Holy Roman Empire.
The former student of Martin Luther and Philip Melanchthon in Wittenberg in 1561 copper-etched a map, a single-sheet cartouche of Silesia, which he published under the title "Silesiae Typus" and dedicated to Nicolaus Rhedinger, councilmen of Breslau (Wrocław). His map was later republished in several versions of Abraham Ortelius's pioneering world atlas "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum".
