Duke Xiang of Lu (Chinese: 魯襄公; pinyin: Lǔ Xiāng Gōng, 575 BC – 31 June 542 BC) was a ruler of the State of Lu during the Spring and Autumn period of ancient China. His ancestral name was Ji (姬), given name Wu (午), and Duke Xiang was his posthumous title.

After Duke Xiang's death, Ziye, his son, succeeded him, but he died only three months later due to "excessive grief." Ziye was succeeded by his brother Chou (稠), who would become known as Duke Zhao of Lu.
