Jan Tomasz Zamoyski (12 June 1912 in Klemensów – 29 June 2002 in Warsaw) was a Polish political activist. He was the 16th and last Ordynat of the Zamoyski Family Fee Tail, a senator (1991–1993), and the president of the National-Democratic Party (since 1991). He was awarded the Order of the White Eagle.

His efforts lead to the establishment of the Sacred Museum of the Zamość Cathedral in 1987.[1]

After the collapse of the communist regime in 1989 he served as a member of the Senate of Poland in the Third Republic of Poland.[2]
